relationship between financial reporting and corporate profitability and
analyzing the causes of high report among quoted companies. The survey for
study covers Ecobank Plc library Avenue, Umuahia. This was a survey research
and the instruments used by the researcher in collection of data were oral
interview and a researcher designed fifteen (15) item structured questions. A
total of one hundred and forty one (141) questionnaires were administered and
one hundred and twenty (120) were properly filled and returned for analysis.
Two (2) hypotheses were stated and were tested using Chisquare test technique
at 5% level of significance. The result of the findings indicates that
