The sequence of the heavy metals (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd and Cr) and total hydrocarbons (THC) in the water and tissues (gills, intestine and muscle) of an abundant and economically significant fish (Clarias gariepinus) harvested from Osse River were investigated from April, 2014 to September, 2015. Water and fish samples were collected from 4(four) chosen stations and were analysed for the...
