POLICE EXTORTION: ADDITION TO GDP?
Based on exchange theory, when someone parts with cash, then
there should be something to get in return.
I am eager to explain that when we part with cash/kind in
acts of philanthropy, then we get back a feeling of fulfillment in assisting
someone or whatever other reason.
However, when the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) extorts money
from especially motorists, I tend to wonder what feeling they get back as
return.
Are these drivers paying for security? Or, maybe they are
paying for quick passage.
The main point of discourse in this piece is to find out if
the exchange between motorists and NPF employees constitute an addition to
Gross Domestic Product (GDP)?
Under what category do we classify this type of exchange and
what service type are they paying for?
I am certain Daniel will have something to say about this.
