The volume of heavy metals in two different fish samples were examined in this report, dry ashing was adopted to digest the samples and the determination of the heavy metals were evaluated using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. from the analyzed sample the concentration of cadimium in all the samples analyzed were below WHO permissible limits which is 0.2 mg/kg, From the different analyzed samples the concentration of lead was below the WHO’s allowable limits which is 0.05 mg/kg, however, catfish and tilapia fish samples gotten from Amasomma have the highest concentration of lead 0.0042 ±0.0021 and 0.0030 ±0.001 respectively. The concentration of cadmium, Aluminium and Manganese are below WHO permissible limits for these heavy metals.
