ABSTRACT
The Urge to embark on this study was necessitated by the dire need to find out the “married and unmarried individual perceptions of sickle cell anaemia.” A case study of Enugu East Local Government Area of Enugu State in particular.
Four research questions guided the study. The study was a survey research design and area of the study is Enugu East Local Government Area of Enugu State. Simple random sampling was used. The sample size was 800 individuals from the five towns used.
The main instrument for data collection was the questionnaire for married and unmarried individuals. The instrument was structured according to a four point rating scale.
The result of data analysis indicated that five factors had a low unacceptable percentage scores, they are the ignorance of the existence of sickle cell anaemia, lack of scientific basis upon which the perceptions of married will be developed, Sickle cell anaemia can not be cured because it is an inheritable disease, avoid sickles if we want to manage the disease. Government should create avenue to educate the married and unmarried individuals on how to eradicate the wrong perceptions.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Sickle cell anaemia is a genetic disease, which affects both married and unmarried individuals. According to Oladele (1998) Sickle cell anaemia is a condition in which some of the red blood cells are in the form of banana or crescent-shaped instead of biconcave, disk shaped of round lie a coin with abnormal haemoglobin S, and are fearless efficient in carrying oxygen. The defective cells soon breakdown, die off and result in shortage of blood (anemia) which results in sickle cell crises with excruciating pain in bones and joints. Sickle-cell anemia According to Adeykunmu (1991) is a chronic, genetic and hemolytic disease peculiar to the negro race due to homozygous inheritance of an abnormal haemoglobin and resulting in a variation in the structure of the goblin, sickle-cell anemia develop when he sickle cell genes is in the homozygous state (SS). Sickle-cell anaemia is largely confined to tropical Africa or people of African descent. It is an inheritable disease, which gets to people out of ignorance.
People have different perceptions of this disease (sickle-cell anaemia) many looked at it as a recantative spirit on man; some see it as a demonic possessive mark of sign. Generally it is believed to be a genetic disease, which is inheritable.
By perception of sickle cell anaemia we mean the understanding people have towards sickle cell anaemia more especially the married and unmarried individuals. It is a genetic disease, which is inheritable from the parents to the offspring, though the olden people looked at it as what they called “Ogbanje”.
According to West African journals of medicine 2000 perception of sickle cell anaemia deals with the knowledge and understanding people have towards sickle-cell anaemia. Perception of these disease (sickle-cell anemia put many married individuals into problem, many lost their faith by going to one native doctor or another because of their perceptions.
