For his part, Abdullah Hassan Musa, Director of Environmental Health and Food Control for Kass Locality, found that increased population density has led to increased pressure on services. He said that his administration was making an effort to prevent diseases, despite the difficulty of carrying out activities in the strife-torn area.
