I don't think Nigerians are that bad in speaking English. The problem lies with the large portions of the northern part of the country where they speak Hausa and English is not encouraged. This gives a net drawback negative effect on the rest of the country especially in the English speaking southern parts of the country.

Uganda is the best English speaking country in Africa.

I beg to differ sir....
Nigeria is a country with so many languages and culture.... English ain't our mother tongue(too bad lots of cultures don't realise or take this serious) being like others or dragging other people's culture won't take us as a country far cool
Other things dey bother us as a country no be who speak Queens English pass

I concur. The prerequisite they probably use is Arabic inclined Northern Nigeria.

West African Pidgin English, also called
Guinea Coast Creole English, was the
lingua franca, or language of commerce,
spoken along the West African coast
during the period of the Atlantic slave
trade. British slave merchants and local
African traders developed this language
in
the coastal areas in order to facilitate their
commercial exchanges, but it quickly
spread up the river systems.......

Baba Nigeria pidgin is quite different from west African pidgin due they share sm similarities dy aren't the same
Nigerian Pidgin, along with the various pidgin and creole languages of West Africa share similarities to the various English-based Creoles found in the Caribbean. Some of the returning descendants of slaves taken to the New World of West African origin brought back many words and phrases to West Africa from the Jamaican Creole (also known as Jamaican Patois or simply Patois) and the other creole languages of the West Indies which are components of Nigerian Pidgin
