Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is the most unwelcome visitor of the 20th Century. It has been disturbing and posing a great threat to human race and world population. In Nigeria many measures were taken to reduce its spread. These includes public enlightenment and free drugs. In this study various tests were applied to compare its spread and effect in different age groups for the period indicated. Kruskal Walls and Mann-Whiteney tests are applied to determine the spread.
Finally, the testes have revealed an alarming trend of HIV/AIDS pandemic in Nigeria. The impact of this scourge is better imagined, as it is devastating mostly among the productive age class 15 – 40. If not checked, this will lead to ill – health in the society, decrease in population, frustration and early deaths.
