Top 10 State With The Highest HIV Rate In Nigeria by Amerage(m): 8:51pm On Aug 09, 2016
From the most recent data of National Agency for the control of Aids NACA for the National Aids Reproductive Health Survey, we came up with the list of the top 10 states with the highest hiv prevalence in Nigeria
So sit back and be aware . . .
This ranking came as a result of test done on Nigerians that are hiv/aids positive
No. 10, Ondo State with 4.3%
No. 9, Cross River State with 4.4%
No. 8, Yobe State with 5.3%
No. 7, Both Oyo State and Sokoto State with 5.6%
No. 6, Akwa Ibom State with 6.4%
No. 5, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja with 7.5%
No. 4, Nasarawa State with 8.1%
No. 3, Kaduna State with 9.2%
No. 2, Taraba State with 10.5%
No. 1, Rivers State with 15.2%

for the list of the remaining state according to hiv prevalence in Nigeria { AIDS }

Gombe – 3.4%, Abia – 3.3%, Bayelsa – 2.7%, Osun – 2.6%, Imo – 2.5%, Borno – 2.4%, Plateau – 2.3%, Lagos – 2.2%, Jigawa – 2.1%, Adamawa – 1.9%, Kwara – 1.4%, Kogi – 1.4%, Kano – 1.3%, Enugu – 1.3%, Niger – 1.2%, Anambra – 1.2%, Ebonyi – 0.9%, Kebbi – 0.8%, Edo – 0.8%, Delta – 0.7%, Ogun – 0.6%, Bauchi – 0.6%, Zamfara – 0.4%, Ekiti – 0.2%

The preceding question is prevention and how to control hiv/aids in Nigeria in other to reduce the rate in each Nigerian States. I hope proper measures are put in place to curb increase and the provision of proper health care support for those that are currently infected without living out continous awareness of the public on HIV / AIDS education
