The Effect of Nigerian Pidgin English on University Students' Academic Performance in Nigeria

This study investigates how the use of Nigerian Pidgin English influences the academic outcomes of university students across Nigeria. By employing mixed‑methods research—including surveys, academic record analysis, and focus‑group discussions—the project aims to identify correlations between Pidgin usage and grades, and to explore underlying linguistic and sociocultural factors. Findings will inform language policy and teaching strategies in higher education.
