Abstract

The study empirically examined dimensions of corporate governance on performance of manufacturing companies in Nigeria. The study revealed that three of the independent variables examined had effect on performance of companies in Nigeria. First, board size had a significant effect on performance. Secondly, internal control had a significant negative effect on performance of companies in Nigeria. Board gender diversity had a significant effect on performance. The study recommended that companies in Nigeria should ensure that there are sufficient directors on the board with requisite experience that can impact performance positively. Companies should continue to ensure firm control over operation to enhance performance, but they should always carry out cost and benefit analysis of internal control.
