This	 study	 was	 conducted	 to	 assess	 the	 prevalence	 of	 Salmonella\udspecies	 among	 children	 having	 diarrhea	 in	 Katsina	 State,	 Nigeria.	 A	\udtotal	 of	 220	 diarrhea	 stool	 samples	 of	 children	 aged	 five	 years	 and	\udbelow	 (0-5	years)	were	collected	and	 screened	 for	Salmonella species	\udusing	 culture	 technique.	 Presumptively	 positive	 isolates	 were	 further	\udscreened	 biochemically	 and	 serologically,	 using	 MicrogenTM\udEnterobactericeae	ID	kit	and	MicrogenTM Salmonella rapid	confirmatory	\udlatex	 agglutination	 test	 kit.	 Antibiotic	 susceptibility	 of	 confirmed	\udisolates	 was	 carried	 out	 and	 resistance	 patterns	 of	 the	 isolates	\uddetermined.	The	 highest	 incidence	 was	 observed	 in	 children	 of	 13-24	\udmonths	of	age	and	 the	least	in	children	of	0-12	months	of	age.	There	\udwas	a	higher	prevalence	in	male	 than	 female	children.	All	 the	isolates	\udscreened	 were	 resistant	 to	 Ampicillin	 and	 Amoxicillin	 and	 of	 these,	\ud90.9%	 were	 resistant	 to	 Amoxicillin-clavulanic	 acid	 and	 45.5%	 were	\udresistant	 to	 Nalidixic	 acid.	 However,	 100%	 were	 sensitive	 to	\udGentamicin,	90.9%	were	sensitive	to	Ciprofloxacin	and	Cefotaxime	and	\ud9.09%	 showed reduced	 susceptibility	 to	 Ciprofloxacin.	 Both	 the	\udoccurrence	 of	 Salmonella in	 children	 and	 their	 resistance	 to	 multiple	\udantibiotics	as	observed	are	of	public	health	significance.	The	vein	of	this	\udstudy	 underscores	 the	 importance	 of	 routine	 monitoring	 of	 the	\udincidence	of	Salmonella and	continued	health	education	of	caregivers
