AN ANALYSIS OF ERRORS ON THE INSCRIPTIONS OF KEKE TRICYCLES OPERATORS IN ABA METROPOLIS

ABSTRACT

This study examined the dominant linguistic errors on the inscriptions of keke tricycle operators in Aba urban with the aim to identifying, analysing and correcting them. A sample of 15 photo pictures taken between August, 2020 and July, 2021 within Aba metropolis by the researcher were collected. The sampled compositions were coded, described and explained using error analysis method. Result shows that almost all components of linguistics like orthography, morphology, syntax, and semantics have been affected. The study identified some causes which triggered these errors like inadequate and educational background, low mental capability, etc. There is need to organise remedial writing course for keke operators in order to improve their writing quality.
