GhostWisperer:
what's your source, sir?

Crossriver, Rivers and Akwa-ibom are all in the south south region leaving only Bayelsa and Delta out which should make the South South region the highest.

So it's either you're lying or this article is
The news says, higher than National average not highest average in the nation. There is a difference!
By region, SS has the highest average of abt 3%
Followed NC, then SE, SW, NE, NW

The problem is not only in south east, Igbos have a tight and controlled sex life unlike the other regions, but the influx of many infected people from south South region have caused the spread, and many returning travelers from South Africa, Libya have also added to the spread, explosion of young girls and sugar daddy relationships, many students from all over the nation studying mainly in Enugu helped the increase the thing is that our beautiful and sacred Igbo land has been deconsecrated, it would only get worse coupled with the high poverty rate in the country..

I haven’t heard from him since 2016 though I really hope he’s fine wherever he is in Enugu state
They better start putting condoms at the Atm terminals and other points so as to promote safe sex
Lol some people are just too dumb for my liking... I wonder how people think sometimes... Not being scared or worried about STD's that doesn't show in people's faces is a sign of low IQ. There's was this girl I was dating, beautiful... First time we wanted to have sex, she was pressuring me not to use condom that she prefers it raw, I was like WTF! I left her dumb ass... Dumb girls turn me off! If you have been to government hospitals and see long queue of beautiful fresh girls and guys waiting for HIV drugs... Omo Your pick go just cold!

So how many south-south youth will bypass Port Harcourt, and come to south-east in search of greener pastures?

So the deportees who migrated back to the East are Yoruba or Hausa?

The last time I checked, the Catchment system ensures that most students in a university hail from same region; then the students schooling in Enugu are MAINLY from which tribe?

Nigeria: How Nigeria's 36 States Fare in HIV Prevalence

Photo: Premium Times

Map of Nigeria used to illustrate the story

19 MARCH 2019

Premium Times (Abuja)

By Nike Adebowale

Two South-south states are among the three states with the highest HIV prevalence rate in Nigeria.

Akwa Ibom tops the prevalence rate chart with about 5.5 per cent of its residents living with the virus. It is followed by Benue which has a prevalence rate of 5.3 per cent while Rivers is third with a prevalence rate of 3.8 per cent.

The details were contained in the Nigerian HIV/AIDs Indicator and Impact Survey (NAIIS) whose result was released last week in Abuja.

The result shows that about one per cent of Nigerians (1.9 million people) are currently living with HIV/AIDs.

This figure, according to the Minister of Health, Isaac Adewole, moves Nigeria from second to the fourth position among countries battling the HIV epidemic.

With an earlier estimate of about 3.2 million people living with HIV, Nigeria was second after South Africa which ranks first with about 7.1 million people living with HIV.

Announcing the NAIIS result in Abuja on Thursday, the Director General of the National Agency for the Control of AIDs (NACA), Sani Aliyu, said the percentage of People Living with HIV among adults is 1.4 per cent (1.9 per cent among females and 0.9 per cent among males.)

The National AIDS survey was launched in June 2018 to determine the true distribution of HIV and AIDS, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C in the country.

The survey reached around 220,000 people in about 100,000 households and was conducted between July and December 2018.

According to the survey, the South-south zone of the country has the highest HIV prevalence, at 3.1 per cent among adults.

HIV prevalence is also high in the North-central zone with 2.1 per cent and in the South-east zone, 1.9 per cent.

The three regions with lower prevalence rate are the South-west - 1.2 per cent, North-east - 1.1 per cent, and the North-west zone - 0.6 per cent.

The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks cells in the immune system, which serves as the body's natural defence against illnesses.

Though the popular way of contracting this virus is through vaginal or anal sex, there are other ways. These include sharing of needles or syringes, piercings, tattoos, blood transfusions, semen (cum), or vaginal fluids into open cuts or sores on the body. HIV currently has no cure but can be prevented and managed with proper medication.

Below is the full list of states and their HIV prevalence rate.

Big shame on whoever wrote this stupid article. Could have at least compared it with figures from other zones rather than presenting a picture that makes it seem like South East has the worst prevalence.

Even Omenka whose state has a prevalence of 5.3 which is second highest in Nigeria is mocking Igbos. Shameless guy.

Well, you're right. The event happened in the South East and the address was made to South Easterners. I guess that was why they didn't need to mention the actual figures from other regions. The OP went ahead and posted it with the intention of mocking Igbos.

In a WHO study, 1 in 5 women sampled in Osun State were carriers of the deadly Virus. Only thing these God forsaken daughters of oduduwa know is to spread their legs wide for Man and Animal. Disease riddled things.
