According to SMOH, 2015, the state has a projected population of 4,328,270 and based on this figure, the state expected 216,414 of pregnant women. These numbers of pregnant women are expected to at least receive two doses of SP during ANC visits to health facilities in the state. But the pregnant women who received IPT at least one dose were 9.7% and those who received 2 doses were 6.6% respectively (NDHS, 2013). Therefore, based on the above information, if we failed to initiate the possible ways of tackling this problem, the main objective of reducing maternal, infant and neonatal mortality in the state may likely not be significantly achieved. So, for this purpose, the researcher decided to carry out an investigation on the issue for possible
