This study determined the effect of a health education program on malaria disease control among the citizens of Nkanu-local government area, a community in Nigeria. Participants consisted of subjects that used the Nkanu community hospital for their health care. Initially, 300 subjects were randomly selected for the study (150 experimental and 150 control) from Ama-nkanu village, but only 202 subjects completed the study. Results of the pre- and posttest on field tests and that of posttest on knowledge acquisition demonstrated significant differences between the two groups on knowledge and environmental improvements. The treatment group performed better than the control group on the knowledge test. On the environmental tests, the experimental group also demonstrated noticeable changes (improvements) when compared to the control group.
