ABSTRACT
Direct discharge of Slaughter houses effluents into water bodies contributes to problem of water pollution. This study assessed the impact of Agbarho Slaughter House effluents on Agbarho River in Nigeria using standard methods to measure the physiological characteristics. The results made it evident that most of the chemical parameters in this study exceeded the accepted standards; phosphate was seen to range between 0.34-109mg/l with a mean value of 27.62mg/l. The most alarming result observed is the presence of a “too many to count” range of microbial load and faecal coliform which can be attributable to a major cause of diarrhoea, urinary tract infections, respiratory illness and other threat to human health. Agbarho River serves as habitat to some organisms; and is also used for domestic activities by nearby communities; hence, urgent policy implementation is required.
