Abstract : A mathematical model for Lymphatic Filariasis -Buruli ulcer co-infection is explored to provide a theoretical analysis of the disease's dynamics. The disease free equilibrium is proved to be locally asymptotically stable; the model was found to be showing transcritical and backward bifurcation, time dependent controls are incorporated to obtain necessary conditions for optimal control of the diseases. Numerical simulation results suggest best strategy in controlling the diseases is using all the controls at the same time.
