Conclusions The overall HIV prevalence rate of 7.7% observed among pregnant women in this study was higher than the national average of 4.1%. Furthermore, HIV prevention campaigns need to be tailored towards older women as done for the younger ones in Nigeria, since prevalence was higher in the former than the latter.
