This was announced by Gaza Gwamna, the Commissioner of Health, during a speech at the start of a three-day workshop on reproductive, maternal, and child health that Rotary International was hosting in the state’s Akwanga Local Government Area.
He said, “We have 19 suspected cases of cholera in Kokona and 10 in Nasarawa Eggon. The person who passed away at Nasarawa Eggon had puked and had diarrhoea, but there was no proof that cholera was the cause of his death.
