CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1     BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The impact of customer relationship is a contractual relationship staff are the most important channels of communication on the other hand, in any business where product or services are said or rendered the customer is thee key success. Many years ago one of Americans greatest merchant Marshall field expressed the whole principles of relation in a few words. The customer is always right, customer can make or break any commercial enterprise, if they are pleased with what they buy and happy about their treatment, they will continue to buy and also inform their friends, buy if the product or service or treatment as unsatisfactory, the consumer will not only stop buying but also will tell their friends and show evidence about the unhappy experience.
          Staff relations with customers are often as much as a management problem as public officers because every organization wants to create an image for itself. Good customer relationship goes hand in hand with organizational image it is difficult indeed to draw a line between them because customers have repeated contact with the staff. The contract provides the best means for the way communications. They permit an exchange of questions an answers providing an opportunity to explain and persuade. They also make it possible to offend or err.
          The general public had anticipated that by now the picture of the staff customer relationship especially in the banking sector should have been pretty and nice to behold at least in terms of service attitude to work and more importantly in the upholding and enlistment of the basis principles norms and ethnic in the daily practices of the constructional relationship. Oral and written evidence seem to attest to the relationship and its effect on the organization’s image.
          It is to appraise the extent to which the system has lived to expectation in their system and other related areas that prompted me into this research work.
          The united bank of Africa ltd (UBA) on which this research work is based originated from Britain and France. The British and French bank limited itself metamorphosed from BNCL Paris (Banque National Ouria Commerce industry) established in 1932. The bank officially opened to business in December 1949 with staff strength to twelve in 1960. The bank went public in accordance with the policy and intension of the French owner of bank to sell off some of their share to Nigerian on February 1961 the united bank for Africa limited was incorporated to the British and French bank was officially opened for business under the name of October 3 1961.
 1.2     THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
In carrying out this research effort theories were received that aided to enhance and understand the staff customer relation between customers and staff of UBA plc Enugu. Among the numerous theories the one that became paramount theory
          This theory ties to explain that it is a managerial function, which is gradually gaining ground in every field of endeavor it creates a favorable environment for business and creates a sound and understandable relationship between staffs and customers of any organization.
          According to world assembly of public relation in Mexico (1987),defines Public Relation  as the art and social science of analyzing trends, predicting their consequences , consulting organization leaders and implementing planning programmes of action to serve both the organization and public interest. These theory have been defined by various authorities based on the perspective in which they try to achieve their public relation objective, but for the purpose of this work, we shall relate this theory to the relationship between the staff and customers.
          This theory enable the staff to study and understand his customer so as to be able to satisfy his needs and maintain him so as to achieve organization needs and objectives. So based on the importance of the customer to an organization., Marshal field expressed the whole concept of relation in a single and single sentence “the customer is always right.
