The problem of orphans has remained a major global challenge.
In 2010, President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria revealed that 7.3 million out of the 17.5 million children in Nigeria were orphans – a heartbreaking figure.
This presentation aims at viewing the global problem of orphans with Nigeria as our main focus.

there are between 143 and 210 million
orphans worldwide.

One major cause of the rise of orphans in Nigeria is HIV/AIDS. The reality is that many orphans shown in the picture above come from homes where parents have either died of AIDS or are incapacitated by the sickness. Some of these children are also HIV positive.

In every 15 seconds, another child in Africa
becomes an AIDS orphan.

It is estimated that 8 out of 10 children
orphaned by AIDS lives in Sub-Saharan
Africa.
