Intestinal parasitic infections remain a major public health problem in many parts of Cameroon, particularly in rural areas where Buea is one of the most fast growing cosmopolitan city where 90% of the population have no access to basic forms of sanitation. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of gastrointestinal parasitic infections among the people living in Kumba, Southwest Region. The study was a cross sectional study carried from the 18 of January to the 18 of march, a total number of 100 fecal samples were randomly collected in different areas in kumba such as Fiango, Mbonge road, Kumba town and Kossala by giving stool samples collecting containers, tissues and questionaires with proper collecting procedure explained to them. And the stool samples collected were carried to a private laboratory for laboratory analysis and the stool were examined macroscopically to check for adult worms, consistency, color and abnormal features such as blood, mucus and fat globules and microscopically by the direct wet mount examination using normal saline and lugol?s iodine. The stool sample was latter preserved with 10% formolsaline and was transported to Bamenda for further laboratory analytical procedure which is the formol-ether concentration technique and the modified ziehl Nelson staining technique. Base on the work done the results showed an overall incidence of intestinal parasites among the inhabitants of Kumba to be (11%). And based on the 11%, helminth infections (85.8%) were more common than protozoan infections (14.2%) with the most prevalent intestinal parasites being hookworms and Ascaris lumbricoides (3%) and the lowest was Gastrodicoides hominis and Diphyllobotrium latum (1%). And also based on sex the results showed a higher infective incidence in men (17.4%) and female being (9.1%) with Kosala having the highest incidence (18.8) and Kumba town being the lowest (0%). A greater focus on intervention is required by improving sanitation and personal hygiene to prevent the spread of intestinal parasitic infection.
