A lot have been said about crude oil pollution in Nigeria and its effect to the economy and environment. This piece however, takes a critical look at the concentrations of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Heavy metals found in the samples of vegetables harvested from these areas where pollution has occurred as against the permissible limits available from literature as to identify their potential effect (developmental, reproductive, neurological) and health hazard. It will thus be an invaluable piece to Health workers, Biochemists, Nutritionist, and all other researchers in the field of sciences and Environmental Studies.
