HENDERSON, Nev., July 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nika Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCMKTS: NIKA) announces the signing of a distribution agreement for the Republic of Nigeria.

The extensive negotiations with I.Conntact-Connect Limited finalized on June 11, 2024 and will allow NIKA to have a strong partner in a key market of 229 million people where recent estimates report a 2.1% national HIV prevalence (approximately 2 million people)1. Under the agreement’s terms, NIKA will receive €1,980 per each set of ITV-1 with two sets necessary for each treatment, which could result in €7.9 billion revenue. More importantly, it will help the battle against a national HIV epidemic, in which 190,950 HIV/AIDS infections are registered each year, with 41,000 cases among children, most of whom do not have access to other therapies.2

NIKA’s CEO Dimitar Savov stated: “Since Nigeria is important for NIKA, in addition to the distribution agreement, we are preparing to open a satellite office there that will serve as a hub for the entire West Africa region.”
