In this paper we present a mathematical model of malaria transmission. The model is an autonomous system, constructed by considering two models: a model of vector population and a model of virus transmission. The threshold dynamics of each model is determined and a relation between them established. Furthermore, the Lyapunov principle is applied to study the stability of equilibrium points. The common basic reproduction number has been determined using the next generation matrix and its implication for malaria management analyzed. Hence, we show that if the threshold dynamics quantities are less than unity, the mosquitoes population disappears leading to malaria disappearance; but if they are greater than unity, mosquitoes population persists and malaria also. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to support our mathematical results.
