Statement of the Research Problem
Industrialization, discovery of crude oil as a source of fuel and most human activities have impacted the soil and water directly or indirectly. Human and other life forms depend on the soil directly or indirectly for their survival. The negative impact of crude oil pollution on the soil and other environment is overwhelming and this has led researchers in search of possible ways to ameliorate this problem using a quick, safe, beneficial, benign and cheap method with the understanding that the cost of managing impacted soil is very expensive. Crude oil contamination of the environment has become a global challenge. Whenever there is a crude oil contamination, there adverse effects are always enormous both on land and on the aquatic life. The soil structure, composition and nutrient are also affected by oil spillage or contamination, some of these oil spill get seeped into ground water which can adversely affect human health. More so, developing effective strategies for biodegradation has been a problem. 1.3 Justificati
