Abstract
The Routine Immunization coverage for Ogun State, Nigeria was 82% for BCG and 85% for the third dose of the pentavalent vaccine (Penta3), which serves the measure for RI coverage in the country. This was lower than the expected national coverage of 90% set by the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP) launched by WHO to increase global vaccination coverage by 2020 (Ijarotimi, 2018).The low immunization coverage documented in the literature among children both in urban and rural areas, indicates the need for strategies to address the situation (Adedayo et al. 2015). This study examined factors affecting the utilization of vaccines among under 5 children atIkenne local government area of Oyo state. Mothers and caretakers of under-5 children were selected for the study. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to 402 women. A multistage sampling techniques was adopted for the selection of respondent Both descriptive such as the frequency tables, percentages, mean and standard deviation were obtain as well as analytical statistics such as chi square was used to determine the level of association between some selected independents and dependents variables were obtained at p-value less than 0.05.
