INTRODUCTION
The problems of commercial banks in Nigeria is the topic of this research project. Some commercial banks in Nigeria are owned by government some by individual and other by a combination of both the government and individuals. Individuals establish banks for the purpose of making profit and to initiate business opportunity where they are available. Organizations on he other hand establish banks for profit making and probably to and business governments establish banks merely for development purpose.
In recent time it has been the vogue for banks to be ridiculed and criticized for one reason or the other. These criticisms have emanated both from official and unofficial quarters and now tend towards a climax.
