ABSTRACT
The main focus of this study delved into the effect of the effect of Nigerian pidgin English on students of tertiary institutions using University of Portharcourt in River State as case study. Survey research design was employed for the study and with the use of convenience sampling method, 210 respondent who are student and lecturers were selected from different departments in the university. well structured questionnaire was issued and were retrieved from the the participant. Data was analyzed using frequency and tables. Hypothesis was tested using Chi-Square statistical tool(SPSS).Thus From the research, findings showed that Nigerian Pidgin is gaining strong ground in educational environment instead of standard use of English language and is substantially being used in communication between staff and students on a daily basis. Thus this affects students social interaction, teaching learning process, learning outcome, sentence construction and academic performance. The study therefore recommends that Staff and students in tertiary institution across the federation should engage the use of Standard English language in the communication rather than use of Nigerian Pidgin.
Moreso the use of Nigerian Pidgin by students during communication should be discouraged by implementing laws that can combat wrong use of English in the school environment.
