Microbial and physicochemical analysis of New Calabar and Ogba Rivers was done. The results showed that the microbial and physicochemical parameters varied in some parameters such as pH, temperature, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), Dissolved Oxygen (DO) that were within WHO acceptable limit as well phosphates and nitrates that were low according WHO. It is also evident in this study that physicochemical parameters varied between raining and dry seasons but both rivers were more contaminated and polluted during dry season. Generally New Calabar and Ogba rivers are contaminated with waste products and heavy microbial loads. It is therefore recommended that proper monitoring and control of rivers by the government should be encouraged.
