Background. In line with the World Health Organization (WHO) guideline on chloroquine (CQ) resistance, CQ was withdrawn as the first-line antimalarial drug in Nigeria in 2005 as a result of widespread resistance. It was expected that its sensitivity and clinical usefulness would be restored with time. This study therefore aimed to determine the level of CQ resistance in Nigerian children aged less than 60 months.
