Abstract
The tragic impact of the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Nigeria and its rate of escalation
despite increasing access to health services have been alarming and terrifying.
Nigerian people are very religious, yet the impact of the pandemic leaves nothing
untouched. The article examines the response of the Nigerian religious leaders to
the challenges of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. It discusses some of the challenges
facing religious leaders as they grapple with the consequences of this pandemic and
explores ways in which they can make a real difference in halting its spread.
