ABSTRACT
The study was designed to assess the impact of roll back malaria programme in Birnin kudu local government Jigawa State to do the study, three (3) project were made based on which three research question were drawn. The population of the study was sampled out of the entire population of inhabitant in the study are literature related to the subject matter was reviewed under different sub-heading samples sizes of one hundred and twenty (120) respondents were used. The instrument questionnaire was validated and tested for variability data were presented and analyzed using sample percentage. The conclusion were d rawn based on the following that despite the existence situation of the country economic arises still government and other agencies are trying to overcome the problem of malaria recommendation were made among others that a charge of behavior, information education and communication campaign be targeted to the large, low income population where malaria is most prevalent.

INTRODUCTION
1.1
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
So much have been said about malaria that must people
tend to ignore any new drug on it. This can be spelt down for a developing
nation like Nigeria and rural communities in particular.
Malaria is still the singular most cause of mortality
and morbidity among in fact and pregnancy women in the community in fact
everybody in the community in developing countries are exposed to the encourage
of this disease at any point O time.
Sabitu, (2002) A good member of children die from the
complication of this disease annually. Malaria have been known since time
immemorial, Bayd, (1979).
The true cause were understood, prevention sly it was
thought that Miasma (bad air or gas from swamps) "Malaria the Mosquito
caused disease known as which lead the Malaria freed of Malaria or have the
number of caused reduced, for instance United State of America. Merieum (1828).
Most tropical countries like Nigeria were the disease
is endemic over seeing renewed resurgence of malaria. The reasons are the
renewed spread of mosquito which is the carrier of the disease in community
which could be due to poor environmental condition and the negative attitude
toward regular clearing of their have been learn to recognize the symptoms. The
patients frequently diagnose their own malaria by observing the symptoms and in
particular the fever. Unfortunately, fever is not unique to malaria because
other disease also start with fever and such confusion may lead to misdiagnosis
and a delay in establishing a correct diagnosis there is lies the problem.
Malaria is a serious disease in children under five years (5) in the community
and obtain lead to death, malaria in children present a number of difficulties
that number of the community cannot easy recognized. This include lack of sign
and predisposing to other infection, malaria is caused by parasitic infection
in human blood which circulates in the blood stream such that when mosguito
bites an infected person it suck up the blood which contains the parasite. The
mosquito itself does not suffer any adverse effect but serve as vehicle in
which the parasite undergoes some development when the mosquito pieces another
it injects infectious parasite into blood streams and thus transmit malaria
from man by female anopheles mosquito. The sign and symptoms of malaria may be
sudden and severe and also difficult to distinguish from other disease apart
from the fever that is easily recognized by the peoples. Other symptoms like headache,
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea are always attributing to poison or witchcraft in
the Community. The goal of malaria control in endemic area is to reduce as much
as possible the health impact of malaria in a population using the resources
available and taking into account other health priorities. Malaria control does
not aim at eliminating malaria totally; complete elimination of malaria
parasite (and thus the disease) could constitute eradication. While eradication
is more desirable, it is not currently a realistic goal for most of the
countries where malaria is endemic. Malaria is complex but it is curable and
preventable disease. Live cannot save if the disease it is deleted early and
adavately treated. In order to reduce the occurrence of malaria the technology
to prevent, monitor, diagnose and treat malaria should be suitable to local
conditions and should be applied through local and national control program
such as roll back malaria (RBM).
1.2
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Malaria is characterized by fever, it is very
unfortunate that most people in the community are not aware that increase in in
the body temperature rather than allowing the sick to cool off, they cover
their body with wrapper thus worsening the situation. This has caused increase morbidity
and mortality especially among infants.
Some of the cases of premature labor and other in the
area may be attributed to mosquito bites, pregnant do not protected them
against mosquito attack, more so, and they do not believe malaria can be responsible
for premature labor and abortion. Rather they think it is the hand work of
witches and wizards.
Members of the community find it very difficult to
walk to heath center for diagnosis and treatment of their sickness but rather
prefer to purchase drugs from hawkers who are very close and accessible to
them. It is assumed that most of these malaria drugs sold in those places may
be fake, thus hindering affective treatment and control of malaria.
Most dwellers of the community are poor based on this
fact, they cannot afford to buy drugs for effective treatment, and thus malaria
is more common with poor people in the community. More so, this work throws
light on the people attitudes that negate the control of malaria. Everybody in
the community is exposed to malaria atleast once in life; consequently the
finding of this research will give an insight on the burden of malaria on the
family.
1.3
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The significant of this study is to reduced morbidity
and mortality of people due to malaria infection especially children under five
(5) years of age pregnant women and non-immune immigrant also to examined the
knowledge of peoples about the Contribution of governmental and
non-governmental organization in the roll back malaria programme, to determine
the existence of health workers and their contribution to roll back malaria
programme, to know the knowledge level of peoples about the existence of
malaria.

1.7 HISTORY
OF THE STUDY ONE'SS
The description of my study area which is Bimin kudu
local government was traced back since before the creation of Jigawa state. The
local government was created in the 1974 during the military of General Yakubu Gawon.

with few sites who restle in the cases because of the good weather business and
other locai amenities of the area.
