摘要

The relationship between health policy on malaria and mortality rate expectancy especially among under-five (U5) inNigeria has not been succinctly detailed in literature. This study examined the relationship between governmentexpenditure (GE) on malaria (proxy for health policy), per capita income (GDPP, control variable) and U5 mortality rateexpectancy using data from 2000 to 2015 obtained from the World Bank and WHO data base. The unit root testconducted showed that all the variables were not stationary at level. The Ordinary Least Square regression model wasused and all analysis done at p<0.05. Results showed that there was consistent decline in mortality rate over the yearsunder review despite the sharp increase in GE between 2006 and 2008. The coefficients of GE and GDPP have negativesigns and statistically significant at 5% and 1% level, respectively. The result indicated that a percentage increase ingovernment expenditure on malaria will lead to only 0.2% decrease in life U5 mortality. Based on the finding it wasrecommended that effort at enhancing awareness of the Roll Back malaria program is germane and improvement ingovernment funding of malaria control strategies in the country should be prioritized.
