More than half of Africa 's 54 nations have introduced HPV vaccine in immunization programs.
HPV is responsible for nearly all cases of cervical cancer in Africa .
About 25% of the population still has doubts about the vaccine, World Health Organization says.
Cervical cancer is the leading cancer killer among women in the WHO Africa region of 47 countries.
It will target girls aged 914 with single doses that the WHO 's African immunization advisory group has said is as effective as the regular two doses.
The challenge is explaining the HPV vaccination to girls ahead of the onset of sexual activity, especially in conservative societies.
