Though, the theoretical underlying distribution of service time is exponential, but this research showed service time to be non-exponential but, normal. This unusual distribution of service time was attributed to non-identical services required by patients from doctors in the considered sample space. Secondly, the mean service time from each service point as researched was found the same. This showed that no line could be preferred to other.

Data was collected by direct observation in two banks, one old generation bank and one new generation bank, queue model and other statistical tools were used to analyze the data. Result of the analysis shows that Guaranty Trust Bank is more efficient than First Bank in that the later has a prolonged service time attributed to the preference of it by a pool of customers for many reasons.
