Predictors of knowledge, attitude, and practices of anthrax prevention among selected veterinary students in Nigeria and Ghana Adelekan Oluseyi Okunlade, Hezekiah Kehinde Adesokan, Foluke Olajumoke Jemilehin, Aishat Motunrayo Oyatoye, Blessing Oluwakemi Ige, Adebola Olawumi Okunlade, Oladapo Oyedeji Oludairo, Oluwawemimo Oluseun Adebowale, Peter Ibukunoluwa Alabi, Derrick Adu Asare, Akinlabi Oladele Ogunleye, Benjamin Obukowho Emikpe Discover Public Health, 2026 Anthrax is a zoonotic disease caused by a spore-forming bacterium called Bacillus anthracis. Globally, between 2000 and 20,000 human cases of anthrax are reported annually; however, measures such as vaccination have been put in place in some regions for adequate control, but there are still occasional outbreaks in some African countries. This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of veterinary medical students regarding anthrax at four West African universities. A semi-structured questionnaire was developed to collect data on veterinary students’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding anthrax. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and Poisson regression with robust variance. Among the 793 veterinary students selected for this study, the proportion of Nigerian veterinary students with knowledge and prevention practices of anthrax was significantly higher than that of their Ghanaian counterparts. Respondents’ age and training level were significantly linked to practices for anthrax prevention among both Nigerian and Ghanaian students. The proportion of Nigerian veterinary students with a positive attitude towards anthrax was significantly higher than that of Ghanaian students. The percentage of Nigerian veterinary students with good anthrax-prevention practices increased significantly with age. Conversely, the percentage of Ghanaian veterinary students with good anthrax-prevention practices decreased significantly with age. The study demonstrated low knowledge and practice of anthrax among veterinary students, indicating gaps in their understanding. There is a need for curricular reforms, including earlier introduction of zoonosis topics, increased practical and field training, and community engagement to prevent recurring outbreaks in African countries.
Assessment of the knowledge, practice, and perception of anthrax among slaughterhouse workers in Nigeria Oluwawemimo Oluseun Adebowale, Oladapo Oyedeji Oludairo, Abimbola Adetokunbo Oloye, Muhammad Mahuta Muawiyyah, Umar Babangida Aliyu, Ridwan Olamilekan Adesola, Hezekiah Kehinde Adesokan, Gladys Chinelo Ezeh, Joseph Ogugua Akwoba, Arinola Bukola Richards, Afeez Babatunde Jimoh, Tayo Oluwabukola Oyawole, Michael Abolanle Akinbami, Taiwo Oluwole Jolaoso, Adeniyi Olarenwaju Tade, Ifeoluwapo Omolola Akanbi Discover Public Health, 2026 Anthrax is a neglected and life-threatening infectious zoonotic disease occurring, especially in Africa. This study was conducted a week before the confirmation of the anthrax outbreak in Nigeria in July 2023. It assessed the knowledge, risk practice, and perception of anthrax among the high-risk working groups, such as meat processors, butchers, animal farmers, meat vendors, para-veterinarians, veterinarians, cleaners, administrative staff, and animal traders in slaughterhouses (SHs) in Nigeria. Also, the national preparedness towards an outbreak was evaluated. A total of 627 participants were purposively selected from seven States and interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire. Data was analysed using descriptive and logistic regression statistics. Most (499; 81.4%) of the participants were males, with the mean age being 37.3 ± 12.0 years old, and the majority (471, 78.1%) had no tertiary education. One-third (207, 32.7%) of the participants self-reported being aware of anthrax, and 13.2% indicated that anthrax was a serious disease for both animals and humans. The knowledge median score was 0.0 (min 0, max 30), the general knowledge level was poor (16.8%), and 91.2% (527) of participants fell within this category. The practice median score was 6.0 (min 0, max 12) and categorised as generally poor (52.9%). Gaps observed in practices that could promote the risk of participants’ exposure to anthrax included slaughtering sick animals for human consumption, splashing blood on inspected carcasses, carrying carcasses on heads or shoulders, and disposing of condemned animal tissues or organs in open dumps. One-third of participants (202, 32.2%) strongly perceived that efficiently implementing vaccination in livestock would reduce the outbreak in humans. Furthermore, participants with no tertiary qualifications and no veterinary background had increased odds (COR: 14.378, 95% CI; 4.923–41.991, p = 0.000) and (COR: 9.157, 95% CI; 3.644–23.008, p = 0.000) of having an inadequate knowledge level of anthrax, respectively. Participants who were non-veterinarians/non-para veterinarians had increased odds (COR: 3.471, 95% CI: 1.629–7.392, p = 0.001) of having a poorer practice level than veterinarian or para veterinarians. Conversely, participants less than 37 years old had lower odds (COR: 0.268, 95% CI: 0.148–0.486, p = 0.000) of having a poor practice level than those above the age. The knowledge level of the high-risk working groups was poor, with observable critical risk practices. Promoting media publicity and awareness creation, vaccination, effective disease surveillance, on-farm biosecurity, and adequate border control are critical strategies to prevent anthrax outbreaks in Nigeria.
Spatial distribution and predictive risk of perpetuation of non-typhoidal salmonellosis in poultry farms and human communities: meta-analysis of data from Nigeria Abdullahi O. Sanni, Annelize Jonker, Olatunji O. Johnson, Ezra Gayawan, Aminu Shittu, Olubunmi G. Fasanmi, Oluwawemimo A. Adebowale, Folorunso O. Fasina Geospatial Health, 2026 To gain insight into the common pathogenic, bacterial zoonosis represented by Salmonella infections in poultry and humans, we acted to determine salmonellosis prevalence in poultry and humans in Nigeria mapping hotspots. Using multi-sourced data, we conducted a meta-analysis to determine national and sub-national prevalence of salmonellosis in poultry from 2000 until 2020. Bayesian spatial joint modelling was used to map Non-Typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) infections in humans and poultry using climatic and demographic predictor variables. With the overall prevalence in poultry at 31.6%, the highest state-level prevalence rates were seen in Ogun (70.2%), Lagos (61.8%), Zamfara (58.2%) and Bauchi (57.1%). The North-West, South-West and South-South regions of Nigeria have the highest regional-level prevalence in poultry amounting to 38.5%, 36.9% and 33.6%, respectively. Thirteen states have higher than the average national prevalence (31.6%). While we found a negative association between NTS in humans and in poultry, the prevalence of diarrhoea in humans positively predicted salmonellosis in poultry. Not surprisingly, poultry populations positively predicted salmonellosis in other poultry populations. Higher numbers of human cases were predicted in the North, with more poultry cases in the South and in some North-Eastern states. The observed human NTS-poultry salmonellosis correlation is counterfactual to logic and plausibility as high poultry density and contamination in poultry are expected to predict human infection. The outcome pointed to under-reporting linked to self-treatment, under-testing in the public health and veterinary laboratory and lack of uniform primary healthcare services, particularly in under-served areas of Nigeria. Salmonellosis continues to be a serious burden, and provision of better health data is needed.
Perspective on ethical AI in computational epidemiology and one health with COHRCIE framework and computational prophylaxis Ayomikun A. Awoseyi, Ernest E. Onuiri, Ayodeji O. Olarinmoye, Adewale U. Oguntola, Oluwawemimo O. Adebowale Discover Public Health, 2025 The increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in Computational Epidemiology and One Health (CEOH) raises complex ethical challenges related to transparency, fairness, privacy, and legal compliance. This study examines the integration of computational science with traditional epidemiology to address health issues affecting humans, animals, and the environment. We trace the evolution of computational epidemiology and explore how machine learning and AI are applied in predictive modeling, disease surveillance, personalized medicine, resource allocation, and environmental monitoring. As AI transforms the landscape of CEOH, new ethical concerns continue to emerge. To address these concerns, we introduce the concept of computational prophylaxis, which enhances traditional disease prevention, and AI as a computational prophylactic tool. We also propose the COHRCIE framework, an ethical roadmap designed to ensure accuracy, transparency, integrity, privacy, equitable access, and responsible data governance in AI-driven CEOH initiatives. By promoting anticipatory ethics and embedding compliance throughout the AI lifecycle, COHRCIE provides a practical structure for building trustworthy, inclusive, and transparent AI systems in both research and applied health settings.
A Nationwide Survey on the Administration of Antibiotics in Companion Animals by Veterinary Practitioners in Nigeria Mary Idowu Olasoju, Pius Soladoye Olagunju, Aderonke Oluwakemi Alamu, Hezekiah Kehinde Adesokan, Taiwo Israel Olasoju, Olufunke Omowunmi Adebayo, Afeez Jimoh, Adenike Iyabo Adeleye, Oluwawemimo Oluseun Adebowale World S Veterinary Journal, 2025 Antimicrobial use (AMU) in companion animals in Nigeria is underreported, raising public health concerns due to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The present study aimed to establish baseline data on antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) among veterinarians treating small animals and, with a focus on prescription patterns and adherence to the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines on the Highest Priority Critically Important Antimicrobials (HP-CIAS). A nationwide web-based cross-sectional survey was conducted between August and November 2022, utilizing an online self-administered questionnaire among 96 companion animal veterinarians (CAVs) in Nigeria. Data collected included veterinarians' demographics, diseases treated, prescribed antimicrobial agents, utilization of laboratory diagnostic tests, and veterinarians' knowledge of AMS and MAR. The survey was conducted using KoBo Toolbox (Cambridge, MA, USA), and the variables were analyzed with Epi Info version 7.1.3.10. Among the 96 respondents, 62.5% were male. The most frequently reported conditions were infectious and parasitic diseases (80.6%), followed by abscesses, injuries, and bite wounds (68.8%), and digestive system diseases (65.6%). The most commonly prescribed first-line antibiotics were oxytetracycline (81.4%) and metronidazole (56.9%), while ciprofloxacin (39.8%) and gentamicin (33.7%) were often prescribed as second-line antibiotics for companion animals. Approximately 38.3% of respondents reported 100% efficacy of the first antibiotic prescribed, while 90.3% were aware of laboratory test results before using antimicrobial agents. The data collected provides essential baseline insights into AMU patterns among CAVs in Nigeria, which are critical for guiding AMR interventions focused on responsible antimicrobial use, including the development of AMS initiatives and educational programs for veterinary practices nationwide.
Bacterial zoonoses: Anthrax Oluwawemimo Adebowale Handbook of Zoonotic Diseases of Goats, 2024 Anthrax is a neglected tropical zoonotic disease primarily of herbivores, such as goats, and which can be transmitted to humans. It is caused by a Gram-positive, aerobic, spore-forming and rod-shaped bacterium called Bacillus anthracis. Anthrax spores are naturally found in the soil and the disease occurs worldwide with varying occurrences in various geographical regions. It is a reportable disease that is endemic in some parts of Africa. Furthermore, anthrax is of huge concern because according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), anthrax is viewed as a possible biological weapon. Recent outbreaks were reported in 2023 in West Africa, including Nigeria, which affected several species of animals comprising cattle, sheep and goats. In Ghana, the disease and deaths were confirmed in both animals and humans. Fever, staggering, depression, incoordination, trembling and difficulty in breathing, followed by rapid collapse, terminal convulsions, bloody discharges from natural body orifices and death, are some typical clinical signs in goats. The transmission of disease to humans, depending on the route of exposure, may appear clinically in three distinct forms: cutaneous, gastrointestinal and pneumonic. The most effective strategy of disease prevention in humans is by vaccination of animal populations using the anthrax spore vaccine (Sterne attenuated spore vaccine). The human anthrax vaccine that is currently in use is not available to the general public. These vaccines are used only in high-risk groups. However, there is ongoing research to enhance the development of new third-generation vaccines, including recombinant sub-unit vaccines for use in humans. Also, multisectoral collaborations, efforts, initiatives, frameworks and integrated surveillance across the human, animal and environment sectors may be crucial for early warnings and mitigations.
Cost-effectiveness of One Health intervention to reduce risk of human exposure and infection with non-typhoidal salmonellosis (NTS) in Nigeria Abdullahi O. Sanni, Annelize Jonker, Vincent Were, Olubunmi G. Fasanmi, Oluwawemimo O. Adebowale, Aminu Shittu, Abdurrahman H. Jibril, Folorunso O. Fasina One Health, 2024 Background: infection (NTS) is an important foodborne zoonosis with underappreciated health and economic burdens, and low case fatality. It has global prevalence, with more burdens in under-resourced countries with poor health infrastructures. Using a cohort study, we determined the cost-effectiveness of NTS in humans in Nigeria for the year 2020. Methods: Using a customized Excel-based cost-effectiveness analysis tool, structured (One Health) and unstructured (episodic intervention against NTS) in Nigeria were evaluated. Input data on the disease burdens, costs surveillance, response and control of NTS were obtained from validated sources and the public health system. Results: The non-complicated and complicated cases were 309,444 (95%) and 16,287 (5%) respectively, and the overall programme cost was US$ 31,375,434.38. The current non-systematic episodic intervention costed US$ 14,913,480.36, indicating an additional US$ 16,461,954 to introduce the proposed intervention. The intervention will avert 4036.98 NTS DALYs in a single year. The non-complicated NTS case was US$ 60/person with significant rise in complicated cases. The cumulative costs of NTS with and without complications far outweighed the program cost for One Health intervention with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of -US$ 221.30). Conclusions: Utilising structured One Health intervention is cost-effective against NTS in Nigeria, it carries additional mitigative benefits for other diseases and is less costly and more effective, indicative of a superior health system approach. Identified limitations must be improved to optimize benefits associated and facilitate policy discussions and resource allocation.
Non-typhoidal Salmonella in Nigeria: do outcomes of ‘multisectoral’ surveillance, treatment and control justify the intervention costs? Abdullahi O. Sanni, Abdurrahman H. Jibril, Olubunmi G. Fasanmi, Oluwawemimo O. Adebowale, Alexander R. Jambalang, Aminu Shittu, Annelize Jonker, Latifah O. Abdulkarim, Folorunso O. Fasina International Journal of Veterinary Science and Medicine, 2024 Non-typhoidal salmonellosis (NTS) is significant and an economic burden in Nigeria. To determine whether investment in NTS control is economically justifiable, Outbreak Costing Tool (OCT) was used to estimate the robust funding of public and animal health systems for epidemio-surveillance and control of multisectoral NTS outbreaks in Nigeria. Health, production, and economic data were collected and used to populate the tool for evaluation. The multisectoral NTS burden for the year 2020 in Nigeria was US$ 930,887,379.00. Approximately 4,835 technical officers, and 3,700 non-technical staff (n = 8,535) were needed with an investment of >2.2 million work hours. The investment cost for NTS control was US$ 53,854,660.87. The non-labour-related cost was 89.21% of the total intervention costs. The overall intervention’s investment was 374.15% of the estimated national and subnational systems’ annual budget for diarrhoeal diseases, and the outbreak response period attracted the highest costs (53%) of the total intervention. In conclusion, intervention against NTS was beneficial (benefit – cost ratio: 17.29), hence justifying the need for multisectoral surveillance-response against NTS in Nigeria. Complex sectoral silos must give way to coordinated collaborations to optimize benefits; and over-centralization of health interventions’ associated delays must be removed through decentralized sub-national-focused framework that empowers rapid investigation, response, control, data collection, and analyses. It should assist anticipatory planning, and outbreak investigation and reduce critical response time. Anticipatory planning tools, when applied pre-emptively, can benefit budgeting, identify gaps, and assist in the delivery of cost-saving and effective measures against infectious disease.
