Immunization is aimed at the prevention of infectious diseases. In Nigeria, the National Programme on Immunization (NPI) suffers recurrent setbacks due to many factors including ethnicity and religious beliefs. Nigeria is made up of 36 states with its federal capital in Abuja. The country is divided into six geo-political zones; north central, north west, north east, south east, south west and south south. The population is unevenly distributed across the country. The average population density in 2006 was estimated at 150 people per square kilometres with Lagos, Anambra, Imo, Abia, and Akwa Ibom being the most densely populated states. Most of the densely populated states are found in the south east. Kano with an average density of 442 persons per square kilometre, is the most densely populated state in the northern part of the country. This study presents a review on the current immunization programme and the many challenges affecting its success in the eradication of childhood diseases in Nigeria.
免疫接种旨在预防传染病。在尼日利亚，国家免疫规划（NPI）由于包括种族和宗教信仰在内的诸多因素而屡屡受挫。尼日利亚由36个州组成，联邦首都为阿布贾。该国分为六个地缘政治区：中北部、西北部、东北部、东南部、西南部和南部。全国人口分布不均。2006年的平均人口密度估计为每平方公里150人，拉各斯、阿南布拉、伊莫、阿比亚和阿夸伊博姆是人口最密集的州。大多数人口密集的州位于东南部。卡诺平均每平方公里有442人，是该国北部人口最密集的州。本研究对当前的免疫规划以及影响其在尼日利亚根除儿童疾病方面取得成功的诸多挑战进行了综述。
