Summary
Non-interest banking otherwise or known as Islamic Banking is one which raised a lot of fumes in Nigeria and in the world over. Ricky Griffin in his book titled ‘management’ [2] described entrepreneurs as a person who directs the process of planning, organizing, operating and assuming the risk of a business venture. Horngren in his book titled Accounting defines an entrepreneur as an individual who employs all the needed resources (land, labour and capital) having identified an opportunity and taken the needed risks so as to attain and procure profit through the production of desired products which will satisfy the needs of consumers. These banks were more than financial institutions rather than commercial banks as they pay or charge interest on transactions. We can say that the history of Islamic banking in Nigeria begins from 2010 and was propelled by the CBN governor [5]
