The simple way to utilized forest resources is to make use of their by-products (firewood and charcoal) in our households. Africa suffered a great deal of energy supply. Nigeria has limited electricity supply in recent years. Gas, kerosene and LNG are exorbitant that poor people cannot afford. The rate of poverty increases especially in a mostly rural community in Nigeria as well as Africa due to bad leadership that common people have no resources to depend on except forest resources where women and children go to bushes. This study assesses the per capita consumption of both the firewood and charcoal daily, weekly, monthly and annually. The rates of consumption determine the usage of fuelwood. The regression analyses were employed to statistically verify the rate of fuelwood consumption. The result indicates that there are high rates of consumption per capita per day (charcoal 0.20kg, firewood 0.09kg), per capita per week charcoal 9.9kg, firewood 4.48kg), per capita per month ( charcoal 181.9kg; firewood 82.5kg) and charcoal 26,937kg firewood 12,042kg). This indicates that people are highly destroying forest daily and alter the natural system of the environment for the sake of fuelwood consumption.

Malaria is one of the tropical diseases popularly known all over Africa. It is caused by the female Anopheles mosquitoes which transmit Plasmodium falciparum into human blood and result in high fever or sudden death. Based on this study, people from the less developed region have poor hygiene and sanitation that contributed to the spread of the vector causing malaria. In this study, geospatial techniques were applied to collect the samples, about 125 samples were collected. The GPS capture was employed using the satellite image to georeference the area study. The data obtained are of four types; the National Health Management Information System (NHMIS, National Malaria Elimination Programme; Malaria Health Product-Daily Consumption Register, Minjibir General Hospital (Federal Ministry of Health), Sample Field Survey (Questionnaire) and Kano State Contributory Healthcare Management Agency (KSCHMA). The results indicated that over 26.4% of children are vulnerable to malaria, 24.8% of infants and 24% of adults. The overall analysis of the 5 villages including minjibir Gari surveyed have 84% of people tested positive with plasmodium falciparum in their blood and a few over 16% were tested with a negative reaction.

Malaria is considered to be a deadly disease spread in almost all parts of Nigeria, especially in the Northern parts. This has to do with the climatic influence of the north-easterlies and the hot dry savannah couple with the attitude of health sanitation. This study captured the vulnerable areas where the malaria cases are severe and predominant using satellite images and data. The frequency of malaria prevalence was done on a daily, monthly and annual basis for the period of 3 years from 2017-2019. The outcome shows that people in Minjibir and 5 villages were sampled having high malaria prevalence in 2017 with 41.28%, 2018 has 35.19% and 2019 has 23.53%. The result indicates that malaria cases are dropping with a decrease from 2017 to 2019 by 17.75%.
