Related researches have shown that most yoghurt sold in Nigerian markets are contaminated with pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella, Enterococcus The presence of coliform in the 8 yoghurt samples in this study confirms the unhygienic standards under which it is produced as also observed by other researchers.
