A cross-sectional sero-prevalence study using random sampling was conducted from June to November 2019 in the selected districts of the Benadir Region of Somalia (Karaan District) and (Deyniile District) to determine the seroprevalence of bovine brucellosis and assess the potential risk factors. In this study, a total of 395 animals aged from 7 months and above were screened for Brucella antibodies using the Rose Bengal plate test, and positive sera were confirmed by complement fixation test. Four sera samples out of the 395 (0.7%) reacted positively for the Rose Bengal plate test and one of them reacted positively for the complement fixation test (0.2%). In the present result of this study, the prevalence in female and male and age were not significantly related to the seroprevalence of brucellosis (P>0.05). But there is a significant relationship of seropositivity of brucellosis with a record of abortion (P<0.05).The current cross-sectional study of bovine brucellosis in the Benadir region of Somalia showed is very low. There is a need to institute control measures of brucellosis through vaccination education on control to the public and conducting serosurveys and those animals testing positive culled.
