Water as a sustainable development in rural area can improve the lives of individuals in any locality. Providing potable water has been a major concern to the people of Fika Local government area of Yobe State. This study is aimed at determining groundwater yield using geo-electrical resistivity data to determine the groundwater distribution of the study area. Thirteen vertical resistivity sounding (VES) was carried out in some selected regions of Fika local government area of Yobe state. The data obtained were processed using the WinSev6.4 software to display results in log-log graph. Based on the geology of the area, the hydro geophysical parameters of transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity were computed using the Dar Zarrouk formulations. The transmissivity values recorded is within a range of 3.00 m2/day to 17.02 m2/day with an average value of 5.83 m2/day, the hydraulic conductivity value recorded is also within the range of 4.4395x10-6 m/s to 7.4771 x10-6 m/s with an average of 6.2438 x10-6 m/s. From the analysis of the result, the best groundwater yield in the study area is just enough for community and private consumption.
