Materials and Methods: The study is a cross-sectional study conducted from February 2018 to October 2019. Sociodemographic data were collected from hospital registration books. Rifampicin resistance M. tuberculosis was detected using GeneXpert Model GX-IV following manufacturers' instruction. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were computed using SPSS version 20. The results were presented as odds ratios with associated 95% confidence intervals, and P-value at 0.05.  Result: Of the 837 samples, 65.8% (551\/837) were males, and 34.2% (286\/837) females, 11.4% (95\/837) HIV-seropositive. M. tuberculosis was detected in 15.5% (130\/837), of which 116\/130 (89.23%) were males and 14\/130 (10.77%) females. M. tuberculosis\u00ac-HIV coinfection was detected in 9.47% (9\/95) of HIV positive. Rifampicin resistance was observed in 1.3% (11\/837), 7.7% (10\/130) in M. tuberculosis patients and 1.05% (1\/94) in HIV seropositive. In logistic regression, the odds ratio for having a rifampicin-resistant M. tuberculosis was 0.49 (0.15-1.54) for &gt; 30 years; taking &lt;30 years as the reference value, 1.02 (1.00-1.03) for male; taking female as the reference value, and 0.78 (0.09-6.15) for HIV positive, taking negative as the reference value.  Conclusion: This study reported the current incidence rate of rifampicin-resistant M. tuberculosis at the General Hospital Yelwa Yauri, Kebbi State, Nigeria, among presumptive TB patients. Patients diagnosed with rifampicin-resistant M. tuberculosis were predominantly male adults. Thus, frequent screening is vital for surveillance and reduces the risk of transmission and spread of M. tuberculosis infections.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.21010\/ajid.v15i1.6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,16]],"date-time":"2020-12-16T11:33:46Z","timestamp":1608118426000},"page":"47-52","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["INCIDENCE OF RIFAMPICIN-RESISTANCE PRESUMPTIVE M.
