  1. aSome diagnostic centres reported cases directly to malaria control cell. Yearly reduction is found to be highly significant. F value 17.737, p value < 0.00. Using the Bonferroni t test, the reduction in incidence was statistically significant as seen from the p values for inter-time interval between various years; between PDY 1 and PDY 2 (p < 0.05); PDY 1 against PDY 3(p < 0.01); and between PDY 4 and PDY 5 (p < 0.001)
