This study reports the ambient concentrations of total suspended particulate matter (TSP: both respirable and non-respirable) measured in Yenagoa and its environs as means of determining the distribution of particulate matter to assess the ambient air quality of a fast growing urban town in Southern Nigeria. Particulate matter was collected at five stations (Berger junction, Onopa government house, Tombia Roundabout, Gbaran Ubie and Ogbogoro Village), using a high volume portable SKC air check MTX Sidekick air sampler (Model: 224-52MTX). The mean TSP Matter measured at each of the five locations are 1189.857
