The fungi isolated were Aspergil/us )pp, Fusarium spp, and Sacchromyces cerevsiae. The highest viable counts recorded for )acterial was 4.3x10 4 Cfu/g, while the highest fungal count recorded was 3.lxl03 Cfu/g. f seudomonas aeruginosa bad the highest percentage occurrence of 35.10% while the least fas recorded for Bacillus spp 8.10%. Aspergillus spp had the percentage occurrence of 37.90% while Fusarium spp had the lowest percentage occurrence of 27.60%.The percentage fensitivity and resistance of the isolates to different antibiotics showed that all the isolates were I 00% sensitive to ciprofloxacin and 800/4 sensitive to Augmentin, Tetracycline and Erythromycin each.
