The population for the study was all pre-degree students (1340), while the sample was 600 in the 2008/2009 session. The research design for the study was the survey type. And the research instrument was risk factor and sexual problem questionnaire (RFASPQ). The instrument had a reliability co-efficient of 0.78 at 0.05 level of significance. Two hypotheses were raised for the study. Pearson Product Moment Corrrlation Analysis was used to analyse the data collected and the testing was done at 0.05 level of significance.
