Abstract
Corporate governance broadly refers to the totality of the mechanisms, processes and relation by and through which Corporations are controlled. This control is important in that the idea that business is solely for profit is ingrained in the heart of each corporation, and this often times leads to unethical and or unwholesome practices in order to gain a (or an undue) competitive or market advantage, and may result in corporate crashes with a glaring telling effect on the economy. This paper looks at the various global modern corporate governance instruments like the OECD Principles; the Sarbox Act; the Code of Corporate Governance for Public Companies 2011, viz a viz the Nigerian corporate environment and concludes that there is a need to further entrench CG principles in Nigeria by curbing or eliminating the various factors that are clogs to firm establishment of the CG principles in Nigeria.
