The Benue State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) has reported spending over N160 million on snakebite treatment from March to September. This expenditure is directly linked to providing healthcare to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and other vulnerable populations within Benue State. The funds were used to treat victims of snakebites, a significant health risk for those displaced or living in vulnerable conditions. SEMA highlighted this as a key component of their broader healthcare services for those in need. The agency’s response aims to address immediate medical concerns faced by the affected communities in Benue State. This investment underscores the challenges faced by IDPs and the efforts to mitigate health crises within the region. The information was first published by Vanguard News.
