INTRODUCTION
Alcohol consumption among university students has become a growing concern in Nigeria. Many students see drinking as a way to socialize, relieve stress, or fit into peer groups. However, excessive alcohol consumption can have serious effects on students’ academic performance, health, social life, and overall well-being. Male undergraduate students, in particular, seem to be more engaged in alcohol consumption, which raises concerns about its impact on their future.
This study seeks to examine the effects of alcohol consumption on male undergraduate students of Ebonyi State University (EBSU). It will analyze why students drink, how it affects their lives, and what can be done to reduce the negative impact of alcohol consumption among them.
IDENTIFICATION OF VARIABLES
For this study, the variables are:
• Independent Variable: Alcohol consumption
• Dependent Variable: Effects on male undergraduate students of Ebonyi State University
The independent variable (alcohol consumption) refers to the intake of alcoholic drinks by male students, including the frequency, quantity, and type of alcohol consumed. The dependent variable (effects on male undergraduate students) includes the academic, health, social, and financial consequences of alcohol consumption.
DECOMPOSITION OF VARIABLES
To better understand this study, the variables can be decomposed as follows:
1. Alcohol Consumption:
• Frequency of drinking (daily, weekly, occasionally)
• Type of alcohol consumed (beer, spirits, local brews, etc.)
• Reasons for drinking (peer pressure, stress relief, enjoyment, etc.)
2. Effects on Male Undergraduate Students:
• Academic Impact: How alcohol affects concentration, class attendance, and performance in school.
• Health Impact: Possible health risks such as liver problems, addiction, and mental health issues.
• Social Impact: How alcohol influences relationships with family, friends, and lecturers.
• Financial Impact: The money spent on alcohol and how it affects students’ finances.
• Risky Behaviors: How alcohol use is linked to reckless actions like fights, accidents, and substance abuse.

This objective seeks to find out how common alcohol consumption is among male students. It will assess the percentage of students who drink and how often they do so.
2. To examine the reasons why male undergraduate students consume alcohol.
This will analyze the different factors that lead students to drink alcohol, such as peer pressure, stress, personal enjoyment, or cultural influence.
3. To assess the effect of alcohol consumption on academic performance.
The study will look at how drinking alcohol affects students’ ability to focus in class, complete assignments, and pass exams. It will also investigate if there is a link between alcohol use and poor grades.

This will analyze how friends and social circles contribute to students’ drinking habits. It will seek to find out if students drink because of personal choice or because they want to fit in with their peers.
8. To determine the role of family background in students’ alcohol consumption habits.
The study will examine if students from families where alcohol is commonly consumed are more likely to drink than those from non-drinking backgrounds.
9. To explore the possible link between alcohol consumption and involvement in risky behaviors among male students.
This objective will investigate whether alcohol use leads to reckless actions such as fighting, reckless driving, unprotected sex, or drug abuse.
10. To recommend possible solutions to reduce alcohol abuse among male undergraduates in EBSU.
The study will suggest strategies that can help reduce excessive drinking among students, such as awareness campaigns, counseling, and university policies against alcohol abuse.
CONCLUSION
Alcohol consumption among male undergraduate students of EBSU is a topic that needs serious attention. While some students drink in moderation, others consume alcohol excessively, which affects their academic performance, health, social life, and financial situation. By understanding the effects of alcohol and the reasons why students drink, this study aims to create awareness and provide recommendations on how to control alcohol abuse among male undergraduates in EBSU.
