Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/ Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), has been increasing steadily in Nigeria since 1987. The Government of Nigeria established an AIDS/STDs control programme (NASCP) with assistance for its first medium term plan (MTPI) from the World Health Organisation (WHO) Global Programme on AIDS, as early as 1987. In June 2001, the number of reported AIDS cases stood at 60,564. The determinants of the HIV/AIDS epidemic are similar to those witnessed throughout the sub-Saharan region. The non-governmental organisations (NGOs) primarily involved in HIV/AIDS prevention and control in the country mainly draw upon resources from international donor agencies, and especially did so during the military era. Nigeria is beneficiary of the decision by leading Western pharmaceuticals to drop their law suit against the South African government which insisted it had a right to produce or buy cheaper generic versions of their anti-HIV/AIDS drugs. 2023-09-26T16:39:26Z 2023-09-26T16:39:26Z 2017 Article Folayan, M.
