This interview with Dr. Liliane Shacko, Acting Chief Medical Officer of the Manika Health Zone in Kolwezi, discusses the cholera outbreak that began in December 2025 and the response efforts underway to contain it. She explains how the outbreak started in the Mutoshi Health Area, outlines the current situation with more than 200 cases recorded, and highlights the measures taken by health authorities and partners, including the establishment of treatment centres, water chlorination points and community awareness campaigns. Dr. Shacko also addresses ongoing challenges such as high population mobility and the continued arrival of cases from neighbouring health zones. She emphasizes the critical role of partners like World Vision in supporting prevention and community engagement, while urging residents to follow hygiene measures and seek immediate medical care if symptoms appear.

A cholera outbreak that began in December 2025 in the Manika Health Zone of Kolwezi, Democratic Republic of Congo, has prompted a coordinated response from health authorities, community health workers, and humanitarian partners. With support from World Vision, essential medical supplies, water treatment materials, and sanitation equipment were provided to strengthen prevention, treatment, and community awareness efforts. Community health workers have played a central role in educating families about hygiene practices, water chlorination, and early referral of suspected cases. Through these combined efforts, thousands of residents in high-risk neighbourhoods have received clean water and cholera prevention messages. While the response is helping reduce transmission risks, health authorities warn that continued vigilance and community mobilisation remain essential due to ongoing population movement and the risk of the outbreak spreading to neighbouring areas.

Before the project, access to healthcare in the Gaya area was extremely limited. Many isolated villages forced vulnerable families to walk for hours to reach health centers in Tounouga or Gaya, often arriving too late for proper treatment. The situation was worsened by seasonal floods in Dosso and Tillaberi, which cut off communities and left thousands without essential health services. According to Mrs. Edui Ramatou, Head of the Gaya 2 Health Center, common illnesses such as malaria, diarrhea, and respiratory infections were difficult to manage due to limited supplies and reliance on only two small health posts. In response, World Health Organization supported the project “Anticipatory health assistance for at-risk and flood-affected populations,” implemented by World Vision Niger and ISCV. Completed in May 2025, the project introduced mobile clinics that brought care directly to villages. Monthly consultations increased from 1,000 to 1,800, while trained community health workers improved case detection and follow-up. For mothers, children, the elderly, and pregnant women, access to timely care greatly improved. Although the project ended, its positive impact continues, and communities hope for sustained support to strengthen resilience against future floods.
