ABSTRACT
The board of directors of a company is a very important organ not only
responsible for management but also for adopting good corporate governance
and practice in the company. This paper discussed and analyzed with the aid of
comparative law, the Code of Corporate Governance in Nigeria and its effect on
the board structure, the role, effectiveness and duties of the non-executive
directors (NEDs) and how their independence can be assured, guaranteed and
monitored to enhance the board’s effectiveness, ensure full compliance with the
codes of corporate governance. The regime of compliance and regulation is
extremely weak and a case is made for a specialized regulator agency to monitor
compliance with the codes, upgrade standard and harmonize the different
codes.
