1.1 INTRODUCTION
In recent years, loan recovery problems have been of the main problems that the Nigerian commercial banks has had to face. Those problems have been main target of policy measures all these years, though at a time it become main focus of policy on which was retarded as more pressing and serious each time. Today the situation in Nigerian have become very serious and seemingly intractable.
The problems of loan recovery in the pigovain sense refers to a situation in which there is a major break down in the repayment agreement resulting in an on due delay in recovery or collection and in which it appears that legal action may be required to effect recovery for in which there appears to be a potential loss.

However every lending institution finds itself from time to time with loan for which the risk of loss is greater than anticipated, when the loan was made or in which the risk is greater than a lender would ordinarily willingly assume. This is because in the lending environment, there are basically two types of borrowers, the good and bad. It is the category of borrowers that carries a risk of default on loan repayment.
