Abstract—The bacterial aetiologic agent of urinary traction in Ogume and its environment was determined using freshly voided mild-stream urine samples. A total of 120 urine samples were collected from in and out-patients and subjected to bacteriological analysis, 31samples showed bacteria growth with females having high incidence of urinary tract infection. Escherichia coli 41.30% and Proteus mirabilis 19.57% were the most prevalent bacteria isolated while the least were Serratia marscecens with 2.17%. The antibiotic sensitivity tests of the isolated showed that colistin and gentamicin were more potent than the other drugs for urinary tract infection. Pathogens while ampicillin was the least potent antibacterial agent for urinary tract infection with 8.7% sensitivity.
