Helicobacter pylori infection is the most common chronic bacterial infection around the world. It is a major aetiological factor in chronic gastric carcinoma and gastric mucosal associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. A study on the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori was carried out among 204 clients comprised 118 males and 86 females aged 11-50years between September,2019 to march,2020.Blood samples were collected from clients and analyzed to determine the presence of Helicobacter pylori using Global Device H.pylori Antibody Rapid test cassette. Out of 204 clients screened 120 (58.8%) were positive for Helicobacter pylori. The result shows that males were more infected than females with 64(31.4%) and 56(27.4%) positive cases respectively. The infection varied according to age group where 31-40years age had the highest infection rate of 80(27.9%),followed by 21-30years 57(20.1%),41-50years 12(5.9%) and age group 11-20years had the least prevalence 10(4.9%).Distribution according to marital status shows that single had higher prevalence of 77(37.7%) and married had the least 43(21.1%).The distribution according to sources of drinking water shows that sachet water had the highest prevalent 81(38.2%),followed by bore hole 27(14.7%),well 10(4.9%) and pipe-borne water had the least 2(1.0%),stream/rivers had zero prevalence. There was no statistical significance relationship different between age, sex, marital status and sources of drinking water and prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection among the clients examined. This study recorded a higher prevalence rate of Helicobacter pylori infection among clients studied strongly suggest public health enlightenment campaign on Helicobacter pylori causes and prevention should be promoted and strengthened .Good personal and environmental hygiene, provision of clean portable drinking water will significantly reduced the burden of the infection. Authors recommend the inclusion of private medical laboratory into government health policies on Helicobacter pylori.
