Salako, who was responding to the findings of the 2018 Nigeria HIV/AIDS Indicator and Impact Survey, NAIIS, presented recently by President Mohammadu Buhari, told Vanguard that government needed to take over the funding of HIV completely from donors.
“We now have national prevalence of 1.4 percent which is 50 percent less than what it used to be and that cuts across for most regions of the country. My fear is that we have got to where we are today because we have a lot of helpers and if they decide to carry their bag and baggage and leave Nigeria, we are unlikely to be able to maintain that system.
Calling for more in-country spending on health, he said: “There is some spending, but it is really not enough or close to what the World Health Organisation, WHO, and United Nations, UN, have recommended in terms of the percentage of the total population and what the health budget should be.
