The Minister of State for Information and Communications, Aliyu Bilbis, said that Nigeria currently has the second highest numbr of citizens infected with HIV.

Speaking at the 2009 World Post Day Celebration and start of the National Postal Campaign against HIV/AIDS, he said Nigeria currently has 2.6 million citizens infected with HIV and "despite concerted efforts made by governments and corporate bodies to curb the menace of HIV/AIDS, its statistics remain staggering and frightening.

"The HIV prevalence in Nigeria is discouraging. Whereas China with a population of 1.3 billion has 700,000 people living with HIV, Nigeria has 2.6 million persons living with HIV out of her population of 140 million people.

"Brazil's 192 million population has 730,000 people living with HIV, while Cameroon with a population of 18.5 million has 540,000 infected with the disease.

"Globally, Nigeria is second only to Republic of South Africa regarding the numbers of persons living with HIV/AIDS,"  Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked
