The main objective of this research work was to find out the impact of Nigerian Pidgin English on students' communication and academic performance. The design used for the study is a descriptive survey method. The numbers of students used are one hundred and twenty-five (125) from the National Open University Benin Study Centre. Four research questions were formulated to guide the study, from which the questionnaire was designed. From the analyzed data, it showed that students frequently use Pidgin in their daily communication within the school premises, lack of effective usage of English language has prompted the student to use Pidgin in their communication and the use of Nigeria pidgin by male and female students has encouraged wrong use and expression of English language. It was recommended that staff and students in tertiary institutions across the federation should engage the use of Standard English language in the communication rather than the use of Nigeria Pidgin. In addition, the use of Nigerian Pidgin by students during official communication should be discouraged by implementing laws that can combat wrong use of English Language in the school environment....Preview Download Preview +Other English project topics and materials you might be interested in»Factors affecting the choice of language in a multilingual society»Stylistic analysis of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s half of a yellow sun»Corruption and victimization in isidore okpewhotides and anthony abaghas children of oloibiri»Political corruption and symbolism in Adichie Chimamanda Ngozi’s half of a yellow sun and Okey Ndibe’s arrows of rain»The society and the girl child in the bluest eye by Toni Morrison and Kaine Agary's yellow yellow»A stylistic analysis of selected short stories in jasper Onuekwusi's the triumphant return and Chimamanda Adichie's - A Thing Around Your Neck»Struggle and survival in a cowrie of hope by Binwell Sinyangwe and the Cardinals by Bessie Head»The language of the Christian religion: A comparative study of roman catholic church and some selected pentecostal denominations»The post colonial experiences in warsan shire’s selected poems - ‘what we own’, ‘conversation about home (at the deportation centre)’ and ‘beauty’»The effect of the Nigerian Pidgin English on the academic performance of university students in Nigeria - a case study of National Open University of Nigeria students in Benin study centre»The misuse of the English articles in selected Nigerian newspapers»Linguistic stylistic analysis of Toni Morrison Sula»Feminism in African novels - a study of Amma Sarkos beyond the horizon and faceless»Analysis of political corruption and underdevelopment in harvest of corruption by Frank Ogodo Ogbeche and naira has no gender by Olu Obafemi»Thematic analysis of Besie Head's When Rain Clouds Gather
