Standard analytical methods were used in carryout the analysis, the result of the study revealed the following Fe (3.104 ± 0.002mg/100g), Cu (0.722 ± 0.001 mg/100g), Mn (0.514 ± 0.014mg/100g) and Zn (0.520 ± 0.244mg/100g). this result indicate that Irvingia gabonensis seed is a poor source of micro-mineral and therefore, it is recommended that…
