The services we enjoy today enhances a better living condition, makes life fun and of course, easier. So today we will be having a detailed discussion on 4 services that are commonly used by man.

• Banks

• Radio stations

• TV stations

• pharmacies

Let us take them one after the other

Banks are places where we store our valuables for safekeeping/ future use. I actually started using bank services in the year 2020 while I was in my final year in senior secondary school. I needed a reliable place where I could save money for the WAEC/NECO examinations, so I created an account with the United Bank of Africa (UBA). Bank services are special because:

• They manage payment system
• Creates a reliable transaction system
• Makes banking faster and easier with the use of their app on a smartphone
• Ensure that all banking/finance sectors are up-to-date
• They promote information accuracy

But of course, banks do face challenges which makes banking a second choice for financial transactions. Hence, banks should try to improve in aspects of;

1. Their networking processes which has led to delay in transactions

2. Be secretive when it comes to information as scammers are everywhere, I remember when my 8000 naira was withdrawn put of my School fee by unknown people, after several visits to the bank I had to give up and until now, no refund has been made

3. Banks should improvise their customer care services by providing their customers with self service opportunities

Television stations are places where equipments managed by an organization transmits video/audio contents through waves. I must say that I started using this particular service as a toddler when my mom played alphabetical rhymes with nice pictures which captivated my interest. Examples of TV STATIONS around me are; AKBC, NTA, BBC etc.
Television services are special because;

1. It informs the public in a visual manner, there is this saying that "seeing is believing", hence anything portrayed on the TV seems so real to the public

2. TV provides "life shows" sessions which educates people both young and old

3. It is also a form of entertainment as it not only kills boredom but makes life fun

Television stations could possibly be improved by;

• *Making its services affordable/cheaper

• Provide mechanisms which could stand unfavourable weather conditions

• Should improve their Network coverage as rural areas seem to miss out on it's services

Radio stations disseminates information through audio means only, it has no visual aid. Perfect examples of radio stations around me are the inspiration FM(105.9), Atlantic FM(104.5), passion FM(90.5) etc. I started using radio services when I was able to understand and discern the meaning of what it had to say at a very tender age.

Radio services are special as it;

1. Is very portable and can be carried from one place to another

2. Radio services has a tremendous reach, it is an anytime, anywhere medium

3. It is more convenient for the disabled like the blind

4. Its services are cheaper and affordable

There are various areas radio services can be improved to satisfy their customers:

• Making sure to include many captivating programs in a bid to Target their customers

• Improving their network coverage to suit the challenging circumstances

• Engaging in cross promotions with other popular stations

Pharmacy is a profession which blends science, health-care, computer technology etc all in a bid to saving life. I have used the services of pharmacies since I was a kid, pharmacies render very special services such as :

• They work hand in hand with hospital and follow their directives

• They save lives by providing the necessary medications

• They promote better/ healthy lives through its services

Pharmacies couldimprove in certain areas such as:

• Medicare plan selection

• When it comes to administering immunizations

• Enhanced delivery conditions

From our brief tour round the various services, we have come to realize that the above services and many others are very necessary for man's existence. Therefore,we do our very best to manage and promote these services.
