IMPLICATION
OF BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION ON STUDENTS ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE
(A
CASE STUDY OF IMT ENUGU)
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this research work is to
evaluate the implications of bribery and corruption on students academic
performance with reference to Institute of Management Technology (IMT) Enugu.
To guide this study, some research questions and research hypothesis were
formulated. A review of literature was done to ensure solid conclusion for the
study. A structural questionnaire was developed and administered by the
researchers to 50 students chi-square was used to test the Null Hypothesis.
Some of the researchers major findings
include: the implications of the educational malpractice and the influence of
social ills, non-payment of salaries, non-challant attitude of the students and
lecturers, the worst is the inefficiency of the police force.
Based on this major findings, the
recommendations include: orientation of our value system, regular payment of
salaries has been acknowledged as the study of punishment, which a wicked
leader who knows only his pocket and that of his immediate families use as a
sanction against the civil servants. This is because that are wicked men and
love nothing else except wickedness.
Moreover, non-challant education,
learning work etc is a societal problem and must be stopped forthwith
Finally, inefficiency of the Nigeria
police is now a cankerworm that is now disgracing the image of the country,
Nigeria, ways must be propagated to ameliorate the problem.

INTRODUCTION

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. It is because of the cankerworm of bribery and
corruption which has eaten deep into the fabrics of our academic institutions
that prompted the researcher to choose this very topic, “THE IMPLICATION OF BRIBERY
AND CORRUPTION ON STUDENTS ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE’, and has chosen IMT Enugu as a
case study.
