The hotline has a new local telephone number, operates 24 hours and day and uses English-speaking operators. The hotline continues to offer rewards between $100 and $10,000 for previously unknown, usable information about theft, counterfeiting, resale or other abuses of U.S. Government-funded antimalarial commodities.

Any person with specific knowledge of theft or counterfeiting antimalarial commodities in Nigeria is urged to contact the hotline:
