Refuse means an unwanted product that humans consumes in which we are no more in need of. Dangers of indiscriminate refuse dump is all around the nooks and crannies of this country. In this paper, effort has been made to inspect some selected areas within Sokoto metropolis (Arkilla, Kanwuri, Mabera, Gidadawa, Alkammawa, Makera, Assada, Helele, gwiwaLowcost, and RunjinSambo areas) to ascertain how the residents of these areas are exposed to health hazards as a result of indiscriminate dumping of refuse. Personal observations and one-on-one interview of some residents were employed as sources of data from the study areas. It was observed by the residents that there is no proper waste management in these areas, which means that they are exposed to health related issues due to the menace of indiscriminate refuse dumping. Several recommendations were then made for the purpose of eliminating or reducing the risks.
