The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. A total of 143 respondents participated in the study. The instrument employed was “Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Family Planning, among Married Women Questionnaire”. The data collected from the study were analysed using simple percentage and mean to provide answers for the research questions raised for the study.
