Comparative and Thematic analyses were done and open code software was used to code, categorize and analyze the data.Non-Adherence to ART is rooted in contextual cultural and religious reasons that require conformity with scientific facts. Organized supports, collaboration with pertinent stakeholders for conformity of scientific and traditional treatment and strengthening of counseling and educations are recommended.
