The researcher collected data from the utterances of the subjects from the sampled schools and churches through observations and these were analysed using Hymes' (1974) theory of communicative competence as the theoretical frame work and Halliday's (1961) theory of systemic grammar to account for the occurrences of code mixing. Our findings showed that in formal settings, the bilinguals tended to code mix Etche more frequently but code switch to English more frequently than Etche in informal settings. This was attributed to the setting of discourse and probably, there were many expressions in English that are familiar to the bilinguals which they could use in their sentenc
