Nigeria is the most populous nation in Africa with an estimated population of over 140 million people. Government reports claim that over 300,000 Nigerians die yearly of complications arising from AIDS. Over 1.5 million children are said to be orphaned annually. Official figures put the steady rise in HIV prevalence rate from 1.8% in 1988 to 5.8% in 2001, 5.0% in 2003 and 4.4% in 2005 and 5% in 2007.
AIDS IN NIGERIA- Millions of HIV are becoming AIDS in everyday and in Nigeria also the same. Once they become AIDS they will start to move to death. The latest surveillance report from the National AIDS Control Program shows that 20% of the current AIDS cases are civil servants, 18% are housewives and businessmen, 11% are farmers, and 8% are students. Thus the government sector will be strongly affected after these employees begin to die. AIDS is spreading faster in Nigeria due to lack of treatment properly.
