Recent studies on antioxidants and antibacterial properties of plant extracts could be attributed to the scientific evidences implicating plant phytochemicals and antioxidants in terminating or inhibiting deleterious chain reactions triggered by free radicals or reactive oxygen species [20,21]. Radicals had been associated with redox related diseases including arthritis, diabetes,inflammation, cancer and genotoxicity [22, 23].Phytochemical screening of C. odorata indicated the presence of saponins, phenols and tannins in aqueous and ethanolic leaf extracts. This suggests that C. odorata may possess hemolytic,anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, immunostimulant and antimicrobial activities [24].Phlobatannins and alkaloids were present in the aqueous extract while cardiac glycosides,
