The  plant sample was dried under room temperature and grounded into powdered  before extraction of the phytochemical using Soxhlet extractor. Result of the screening, shows that there are various phytochemicals such as saponin, alkaloid and tannin among others. The result of the study also showed the plant contain protein, crude fibre, moisture among others. Therefore, the study recommends that  phytochemical properties of Securinega virosa  should be harness and used in the treatment of diseases.</em></p>}, number={1}, journal={International Journal of Agriculture, Biology & Environment (e-ISSN 2582-6107) DOI: 10.47504/IJAGRI }, author={Omaka Onyekachi}, year={2020}, month={Apr.}, pages={30–39} }
