The tools exist. The science is stronger than ever. The institutions are in place. What Africa needs now is the discipline to hold itself accountable and the resolve to act with urgency.

New vaccines, treatments, malaria control tools and pioneering technologies- including gene drive and long-acting injectables - are in development.

This #WorldMalariaDay, we have our strongest ever chance to beat resistance and end this disease for good. Sustained funding is what gets those breakthroughs out of labs and into the communities that need them most.

[Sunday Oliseh @SundayOOliseh]

Sadly i lost my brother, Uche Levi Oliseh on Thursday after a brief illness with Malaria fever. It hurts so bad,like i have never felt before.I have over a million things that i would wanna talk,laugh and do with uche ,but sadly i cannot anymore. Damn, Death is a real bitc. .

[Block Malaria Africa Initiative @BlockMalaria]

@SundayOOliseh, your courage in sharing this pain moves us deeply. If there was ever a time to highlight the risks posed by #malaria, now is that time.

Let’s honour Uche’s memory by ensuring that no more brothers, sisters, children, or parents are lost to #malaria.
