Business Practice As A Metaphor Of The Nigerian State by Listic1: 8:48am On Nov 04, 2017
Most businesses in Nigeria operate in a questionable fashion. And this is for want of a more appropriate word to describe the unethical practices perpetrated by these organisations. A few examples are necessary.

Electricity distribution companies don't distribute power (which is generally nonexistent, by the way). And yet, they expect and insist that hapless electricity consumers must pay their bills, which are scandalous, at the end of each month. As if this is not bad enough, telecommunication companies charge you for calls that don't connect or messages that don't deliver. In some cases, you just wake and you discover a huge chunk of your airtime is gone. When enquiries are made, all one is told is that it is due to one subscription or another. Subscriptions whose details one has no idea about.

And the one that gets me completely stunned. Nigerian banks keep deducting small amounts of money on a regular basis from customers' account. They say it is for card maintenance, SMS fee or other similar but shady charges. All of these for an account that is either dormant or not used often to justify the amounts deducted.

And here is the outrage! At the end of every trading year something happens. These guys keep declaring humongous profits before and after tax which are gotten largely fraudulently!
