I don't know why everything in Nigeria is about money, I was not surprised when I heard that number of persons affected with HIV AIDS have increased in Adamawa state. I visited general Hospital Numan, in Adamawa state to conduct HIV AIDS test but they asked me to pay and even in Taraba State the same issue. Please is this issue of payment to know one status is approved by government or just corruption?. Please share your own experience.

Now you see why Tinubu wants to run to Donald Trump! Around February 2025, Trump announced a halt to all PEPFAR programs — that’s the U.S. government’s major support for HIV, malaria, and public health interventions in countries like Nigeria. These programs have been a lifeline for millions, fully funded from the Office of the U.S. President. After serious lobbying and “begging” from his board, Trump eventually allowed the programs to resume — but with drastically reduced funding. The effect has been brutal: many professionals working under these programs lost their jobs, and countless patients who relied on free treatment are now stranded. And that’s just one program ooo! There are other U.S.-supported projects — for family planning, malaria prevention, maternal health, food, and nutrition security — all of which used to be free of charge. Now? You pay from your pocket. If Trump hadn’t reconsidered halting the HIV program, many Nigerians living with HIV could have died by now. Imagine this — the cost of ART drugs is now about ₦95,000! How many people can afford that? Can our government realistically step in and shoulder that burden? This is a serious wake-up call. Foreign aid can vanish overnight. If Nigeria doesn’t begin to invest heavily in its own health system, we’ll forever remain at the mercy of global politics. Because truth be told, if Trump ever decides to turn his back on Nigeria or the North, he doesn’t need to send soldiers — just a single policy decision could cripple health programs and cost thousands of lives. That’s the kind of quiet power the U.S. still holds over us. |

Where are the Nigerians criticizing USAID? It’s crazy that the same people criticizing USAID will come out to wail when its repercussions come up. You guys do not want US opinions in Nigeria affairs but you want its money. |

Nigerians often seek free things. The government spends a lot on HIV awareness and prevention, but people ignore it. You engage in unprotected sex, seeking free STD tests and antiretroviral drugs. You dey nack raw and you expect government to take full responsibility of your recklessness. This is a contradictory mindset that neglects personal responsibility.Peace! |

Test like this should be free It shouldn't be too much for government to take care of it. |

Pwaco:I went to a government hospital in Osogbo and I was approached by a lady to take HIV test and the only thing I bought was gloves. They might be taking advantage of them because the rate is rampant over there. |

![]() I'm not supporting the government, bit why would you expect the test to be free, if everything is free, how do you expect them to pay the doctors who work day and night and other medical practitioners like the science lab people... Abeg carry yourself go private hospital go do the test and do it for free... If it's within the mi image fee, please go ahead and do it bro |
