Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The Ethics and Research Committee of University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital approved the study protocol with verbal consent from voluntary participants for the screening program, which was conducted annually to mark World Kidney Days (WKDs). Participants were informed about the screening program on local radio and television repeatedly a week before the date; and through their community heads and Local Government Authority, both also gave approval for the program. On the WKDs, a reiteration of the survey was delivered to the participants before the screening commenced. In addition, the survey was community service-oriented; participants with abnormal findings were treated and followed up at university of Ilorin teaching hospital.
