“…This work is in accordance with the report by Inam et al ( 2016 ), which recorded 1.77 mg/kg PAHs in a mechanic shop at Uyo in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria. Other reports by Daniel et al ( 2020 ) found a range of PAH concentrations between 214.83 and 537.22 mg/kg in urban soil samples used for mechanic work, and Onyedikachi et al ( 2019 ) confirm the presence of PAHs above the WHO acceptable limit in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Separate studies on PAH concentrations in urban soils outside Nigeria showed that Greater London had values between 4 and 66 mg/kg (Vane et al, 2014 ), industrial areas of the Yangtze River Delta region in China had intermediate values of PAHs between 341.40 and 471.30 µg/kg and Moscow had < 1 to 1 mg/kg (Vane et al, 2014 ).…”
