This paper involved conducting a statistical analysis on the number of individuals living with HIV/AIDS. The University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH) was chosen as the case study for the years 2014 to 2019, with factors such as year, sex, and age group taken into account. During this six-year period, a total of 2604 cases were recorded at UITH. Among both sexes, females had the highest number of people living with HIV/AIDS. Additionally, the age group of 31-45 had the highest number of individuals affected by the disease. In terms of the specific year, 2016 had the highest number of people living with the disease, totalling 460 cases. A chi-square test of independence was conducted to examine the relationship between the factors, using a significance level of 0.05. The results indicated that all the considered factors were not independent of each other, meaning they were related.
