Abstract: Gastrointestinal parasites are among the most devastating diseases of livestock. However, the diseases are often over looked because clinical symptoms are rarely apparent, losses of production occur mainly from retarded growth, delayed fertility and productivity. Pigs are among the abundant livestock potential of Nigeria. Usefullness of pig include, source of protein for human consumption, employment generation through pig farming, processing and marketing and revenue generation with significant contribution to the nation gross domestic product. Pig industry in Nigeria is faced with constraint of disease, cultural and religious factors. The study was carried out in October 2013 to March 2014. A total of 920 pigs were examined, 95% (874) were exotic breed while 5% (46) were local breed of pig. Out of 920 sampled pigs, 55% had Hydrostrongylus rubidus, 23% Ascaris Suum, 17% Taenia Solium and 5% had Trichuris Suis. There was no significant difference between male and female pig. The high rate of parasitic infection observed in this study was due to poor management practices and lack of routine deworming in most farms visited. Cysticercosis remains a major zoonosis from piggery in Kwara State Nigeria.
