Water samples were collected from Okamini stream and analyzed for some physicochemical parameters. The values showed that electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, chlorides, sulphates, nitrates and phosphates were within the range of values acceptable for domestic water use by WHO. Others such as turbidity, pH and salinity were not within acceptable range in water for human consumption. Although, the water from the stream at the time of evaluation may not be at an alarming situation, but calls for adequate surveillance and protection to avert possible decay that looks eminent.
