  • TQM and the Role of Customers' Orientation in Organizational
    FULAFIA JOURNALS OF SOCIAL SCIENCES (FJSS) Vol. 3, No. 4 Dec., 2020 Quarterly Journal of Faculty of Social Sciences, Federal University of Lafia TQM and the Role of Customers’ Orientation in Organizational Performance in the Nigerian Aviation Industry Christiana Benjamin NSIEN Department of Business Education Akwa Ibom State College of Education Afaha Nsit ABSTRACT The prominence of the business adage that recognises customer as the king has been with us for many decade. However, it appears that in a Seller‘s market the customer may not necessary be considered as the king as he or she usually have no option but to buy the service or the goods available, because of scarcity. This is not to deny the fact that the satisfaction of customers can result to increased patronage of such services and products. Given this background, this study examined the role of customers‘ orientation in organizational performance in the Nigerian Aviation industry, given the adoption of Total Quality Management (TQM) by the industry. A total of 325 respondents were drawn proportionally from 8 domestic airlines in the country, and administered questionnaire. The respond rate was 313. The finding revealed a positive significant relationship between customers‘ orientation and performance in the Aviation Industry. However, customers‘ orientation was not considered a top priority, compared to other TQM factors like effective information, top management commitment‖ and suppliers‘ quality management. The study therefore found the existence of ―seller‘s market‖, which in the absence of quality competition, leave the customers with no option than to patronize what is available. The study therefore recommended that the Nigerian Airlines should consistently monitor the perception of customers to their services so as to know where the gap lies between the offered service and expectations of customers.

  • Impacts of COVID 19 on Supply Chain Operations in Nigeria
    International Journal of Business and Management Invention (IJBMI) ISSN (Online): 2319-8028, ISSN (Print):2319-801X www.ijbmi.org || Volume 9 Issue 4 Ser. I || Apr. 2020 || PP 43-52 Impacts of COVID 19 on supply chain operations in Nigeria. Adepoju Ibrahim, Babatunde Fellow of PhD, City University, Cambodia Abstract: Recent COVID 19 had plunged the world into broken supply chain which Nigeria is not an exemption. Many manufacturers and service providers in the country are already experiencing severe shortage of Essential and non-essential raw materials including medical and pharmaceuticals products, in addition to intermediate inputs. This has implications for capacity utilisation, employment generation and retention and adequacy of products’ supply to the domestic market, it appears that nobody seems to know where to get these supplies from, nor do they understand what the real demand and supply actually is. Most countries had shot down their factory, the level productivity and efficient capacities had dropped, most nations stock exchange market crashed, most had closed their borders against Imports and Exports, Financial institutions weakening owing to excessive withdrawal of funds due to speculation on long period of lock down, Intra and inter regional trade affected, mobility of labour and other factors of production static (immobilised), seaports and Airports shut down, and some offering skeletal services, and peasants are no longer working at their farms and workshops. Oil prices dropping drastically. All the above is in addition to existing infrastructural and budgetary deficit in Nigeria like declining foreign reserve, falling global oil price, Excess Crude Account balance ,dependence on crude oil proceeds, heavy debt portfolio, debt servicing, slow pace of foreign direct investment, Fiscal indiscipline and heavy monetary burden.

  • Service Quality and Passenger Satisfaction in Air Transportation in a Developing Economy: Evidence from Nigeria
    Available online at http://docs.lib.purdue.edu/jate Journal of Aviation Technology and Engineering 10:1 (2021) 30–44 Service Quality and Passenger Satisfaction in Air Transportation in a Developing Economy: Evidence from Nigeria Obioma R. Nwaogbe1, Innocent C. Ogwude2, Ejem E. A.2, and Pius A.3 1Nigeria Maritime University Okerenkoko, Warri 2University of Technology, Owerri 3Manchester Metropolitan University Abstract This study investigates the quality of service provided for air travel in Nigeria and the level of satisfaction of passengers with the service encountered. It does so by focusing on both the airports and the airlines as service providers. In that way, the study captures much of the effects of the organizational culture, employee behavior, and general norms which influence passenger attitudes. The SERVQUAL model was used in measuring the five dimensions of service. Domestic travel only was studied, with data obtained from well-structured questionnaires to evaluate perception–expectation gaps in airports as well as in airlines. The overall gap score of the Nigerian airports shows an average airport quality of service with a value of 21.8179. This reveals that the perceived service quality is less than passengers’ expectations in Nigerian airport service operations. In the same vein, the gap score of the Nigerian airlines shows an average airline quality-of-service gap with a value of 21.32, which is generally low. This means that the passengers or customers of the airlines during the response period were expecting more service quality from the airlines in the country. The level of service at Nigerian airports needs to be improved so as to encourage passengers to use the airports and as well reduce many queues at baggage collection areas.

  • Nigeria Next Level
    NIGERIA NEXT LEVEL “Nigeria is so peculiar and dramatic. Even talking about the potentials before we talk about the negativities, Nigeria is a nation for perpetual study. I think in Nigeria, it is the potential which hits people and makes them believe in Nigeria.” Wole Soyinka, Playwright, Poet and Nobel Prize Laureate I came across this quote during my first months in Nigeria, back in 2009. I had grown up as a disciple of Winston Churchill, utilising his positive and inspirational words to drive me forward during every challenge that I faced. However, the words of Soyinka struck me deeply and I began to look at Nigeria in a whole new light. I began to immerse myself within the culture, cuisine and the spiritual side of the nation. With this, I saw the potential in myself and saw that Nigeria truly is a land of opportunities. During my time in Nigeria, I met my wife who gave birth to our first daughter here and we began our life together. I feel that I owe a great debt to the country. I may be Austro-Brazilian but I’ll always have Nigeria in my heart. This source book, and our documentary that was released in April 2019, are our small attempts to repay the country by showcasing to the world the potential of this beautiful land. I believe in Nigeria and like Wole Soyinka, see it as an evolving nation for perpetual study. I hope that Nigeria: Next Level provides you with a strong example of the country’s potential and makes you too, believe in Nigeria.
