CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1:1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Bribery and corruption have done much damage in this country. They are both cancerous and contagious, and It appears every is corrupt and bribe conscious because of our economic depression.
Bribery and corruption are social ills that have bedeviled Nigeria; it has eaten deep into our national existence. Bribery and corruption have been seen to be very prominent in Nigeria society and study of these as social phenomena is imperative because it is a central problem of human society.
Macmillan contemporary dictionary (1979) defined corruption as a deviation from honest, influenced by bribery; an inducement in cash or kind to secure services or good from public officials or other agencies through illegitimate or unlawful or irregular means
On the other hand, a bribe is defined as price reward, gift or favour bestowed or promise with a view to present the judgment or compute the conduct especially of a person in a position of trust.
Some gormless lecturers take delight in having immoral dealings with their female students they award high marks to those beautiful undergraduates.
In addition, some lecturers demand some amount from some students that concluded not to buy the handout or were unable to pay for it. Some even collect money for late submission of assignment and yet undercoat their scores, living them in a position to see his / her failure or give bribe.
Similarly, an old pensioner of Enugu State complained bitterly that he was asked to pay the sum of #5000.00 as bribe before his total gratuity could be computed and paid to him. When the old man was unable to meet the demand, his personal file was declared missing and further action on his gratuity was suspended while his colleagues who coughed out money to those concerned with the gratuity had collected their entitlement long ago.
In WAEC and JAMB offices for one of to obtain forms from these places, one had to grease the palm of clerks responsible for the sale of these forms. If one fails to comply as pointed out above, one may not obtain these forms urgently until the eleventh hour, when one may now face the possibility of late submission which ordinarily attract a fine of less than #500.00
Some employers in various offices take bribe from the poor applicant before he employs him, and when he is employed, the applicant (now an employee) in turn steal from his employer.
Moreso, policemen according to the nature of their work, found more guilty of bribery and corruption than any other people in other walks of life. For instance, the corrupt traffic policemen takes bribe from the reckless driver and allow him to drive the defected vehicle an even without a driving license.
In different academic institutions, bribery and corruption are the talk of the day, it has eaten deep into our nation’s existence, it has being a culture or a system too of which the results gotten from our different institution do not portray the real academic performance of the students and as a result of this, the brilliant ones and less privileged are the victims.
