However, newspaper readership among students in Nigeria has been an issue of concern. This study investigated the determinants and challenges of reading print version of newspaper among youths. The research design adopted was a descriptive survey, population frame was 630 Mass Communication Students of Federal College of Education Asaba registered in 2018/2019 session while the sample size was 242 selected via a stratified random method. It was discovered that there is low newspaper readership among the students. The student preferred general interest newspapers particularly Daily Trust and the Sun Newspapers. The manners in which the students access newspapers were majorly through borrowing and vendor stand-free-reading. The study also revealed that politics and sport are the major subjects of interest which the students often seek from newspaper while the problems militating against the newspaper readership among the students include lack of money, prevalent of online newspaper and poor supply of newspaper in the University library and the Department.
