Abstract

Animal disease reporting in Nigeria is inefficient and characterized by late, inaccurate and gross under-reporting. Recently, most states of the country under reported and show a general inconsistency in disease reporting.

However, there is dearth of documented information on the reasons for the observed inefficiency in Nigeria’s animal disease reporting system. The aim of this study is to determine the factors influencing animal disease reporting in Borno and Gombe states, north eastern Nigeria.

A cross-sectional study was used to obtain information from 40 disease reporting officers in Borno and Gombe states between March and April 2012.

Structured questionnaires were used to collect data on socio-demographics of disease reporting officers, availability of reporting forms, knowledge of reporting forms and procedure, completeness and timeliness of reporting and feedback between levels of reporting. Frequencies and proportions were computed.

Unsatisfactory knowledge of reporting forms and procedure (OR = 20.08, CI = 2.15 – 494.94) and poor problem-solving initiative (OR = 252, CI = 35912.05) were found to have a statistically significant association with disease reporting performance.

Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Animal diseases continue to pose serious threats to both human and animal health, not only as a result of their impact on livestock production systems and livelihoods, but also due to their zoonotic potential.

In recent years, the occurrence of emerging and re-emerging infectious animal diseases of zoonotic importance such as the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) – H5N1 and pandemic influenza H1N1 2009 necessitated the efforts of governments, international organizations and communities towards the control and eradication of animal diseases.

The need to fight animal diseases at global level has since been recognized as an international priority. This is evidenced by the creation of the Office International des Epizooties (OIE) through the international agreement signed on January 25th 1924.

In May 2003 the office became the World Organization for Animal Health but kept its historical acronym OIE.

One of the principal objectives of the OIE is to inform governments on the occurrence, evolution and distribution of animal diseases and zoonoses throughout the world and on the methods of control and prevention that are implemented.
