Based on this study, PREVALENCE of HYPERTENSION was 15% in females, 12.5% in males and 13.9% in the studied whole population. PREVALENCE age adjusted 13.4% in females, 11.09% in males and total case population was 12.24%. The results showed that 36% of females, 52% of males and 44% of total case population were un aware of their illness. Chi- square test with 99% coefficient of certainty showed significant difference between HYPERTENSION, obesity and age. However, significant differences was seen between HYPERTENSION and sex. The results showed that the HYPERTENSION risk is consider in society, there fore population screening with concern to HYPERTENSION, teaching people and modifying their life style is recommended.
