INTRODUCTION:  Health as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) is a state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. A healthy Community is a wealthy community.  Bille due to her geographical location and terrain has the challenge of insufficient access to healthcare delivery services.  Good Health has strong correlation with other health promotion features, such as roads, pipe-borne water, environmental pollution, adequate power supply and etc.

THE HEALTH SITUATION IN BILLE TODAY: The challenges of health development in our environment are divided into two segments: HEALTH PROMOTION FEATURES:  Inadequate water supply  Crowded housing pattern  Poor environmental sanitation  Pollution of our waterways with crude oil  Poverty  Poor Nutrition

Where we are: Inadequate health infrastructures Inadequate Manpower Inadequate essential drugs Inadequate public enlightenment Ignorance of citizens Poor motivation of Health workers

Determination Of The Resources To Implement These Tasks And People Responsible For Its Implementation Include: We propose continuous appeal to the Government (Federal, State and Local) for infrastructure provision and funding. This can be complemented with funds from Community self help; Appeal to the Multinational oil Companies operating in and around Bille Kingdom; Philanthropic Organizations/Individuals. The Healthcare Development Committee members should raise need awareness from time to time to ensure gaps are addressed. 5.
