Sixty samples of freshly collected faeces from sixty randomly selected primary school children between the age of four and ten years from two selected primary schools; Gaius Benton and Pope John primary schools, Oko were analyzed. A small quantity of each faecal sample was collected from the specimen bottle and emulsified on a clean microscopic slide and then examined microscopically of the 60 samples examined, 52(86.7%) harbored helminthes ova, Ascaris Lumbricoides was 33(55%), Ancylostoma duodenale was 14(23.3%) and Trichuris trichiura was 5(8.3%).
