Communicable diseases, also known as infectious diseases, are illnesses that can be transmitted from one person to another through various means, such as direct contact, contaminated surfaces, or the air. Inadequate personal hygiene practices, including poor hand hygiene, improper sanitation, and lack of awareness about disease prevention, can significantly contribute to the spread of communicable diseases. Moreover, unsanitary environmental conditions, such as inadequate waste management and polluted water sources, further exacerbate the risk of disease transmission within communities. To address these challenges, it is imperative to promote and implement effective personal and environmental hygiene practices. Education and awareness campaigns should be conducted to inform the residents of Kpakungu about the importance of handwashing, proper sanitation, and waste management. Access to clean water and improved sanitation facilities should also be prioritized to ensure a healthier living environment. Furthermore, community participation and involvement are essential in establishing sustainable hygiene practices. Encouraging individuals, families, and community groups to take responsibility for maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in their surroundings can significantly contribute to disease prevention efforts. By implementing comprehensive hygiene strategies that focus on personal and environmental cleanliness, the transmission of communicable diseases can be significantly reduced in the Kpakungu area of Minna. This abstract emphasizes the importance of prioritizing hygiene practices and highlights the need for collaborative efforts between individuals, communities, and relevant stakeholders to create a healthier and safer living environment.
