The toxicity of Albizia chevalier sawdust extract was investigated with emphasis on histopathological and haematological effects on African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) juveniles. A static bioassay was conducted to determine the LC50 of Albizia chevalier sawdust extract to Clarias gariepinus juveniles. The fish were exposed to 55, 63.1, 67.6, and 73.9mI/L of Albizia chevalier sawdust extract. The result of the acute toxicity showed that the extract was toxic to the fish with an LC50 value of 54.42mI/L. The pH, DO and temperature values of the water in the different concentrations differed significantly from the control (p ≤ 0.05). Furthermore, the haematological assessment revealed that values of the blood parameters (WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT, PCV, LYM, MxM, NEUT and PLT) of fish in the different concentrations were significantly different from the control (p
