Corporate Governance Regulation and Control Fraud in Nigerian Banks A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment for the Requirements of University of Sheffield for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Simisola Imelda Akintoye School of Law University of Sheffield December 2015 Abstract The 2009 banking crisis in Nigeria awakened the country on the need for effective corporate governance regulation. In a bid to prevent future banking crisis in the country, this thesis examines control fraud in the 2009 banking crisis using the first five banks involved as a case study. The research addresses three major areas of concern: first, it investigates the fraudulent activities of the banks’ CEOs in the periods leading to the crisis; second, it explores the involvement of other corporate actors in the banking crisis; lastly, it examines how corporate governance regulation can be improved to reduce the likelihood of future control fraud in the banking sector. The research adopts a socio-legal method that links corporate governance regulations pre and post banking crisis to the role of corporate actors including CEO’s, auditors, shareholders and Regulators in corporate governance. The research explores corporate governance as a driver of control fraud in Nigerian banks. The research suggests that prevention of control fraud is not in itself determined by provision of adequate corporate governance regulation but also include a number of enforcement mechanisms and contribution of corporate participants, a totality of which could help prevent future control frauds in Nigerian banks. The research contributes to theory, practice and policy. First, it integrates and enhances appropriate literature and knowledge on corporate governance regulation in Nigerian banks. -
What Has Been the Political Effect of Regional
WHAT HAS BEEN THE POLITICAL EFFECT OF REGIONAL CONCENTRATION OF NEWSPAPER OWNERSHIP AND PRODUCTION IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999? HAS THIS CONCENTRATION AFFECTED THE CONTRIBUTIONS NIGERIAN NEWSPAPERS MAKE TO DEMOCRACY? BABATUNDE VICTOR JATULA (0702537) B.A (OOU), M.A (LEICESTER) A PhD Thesis submitted to the Department of Politics and Public Administration, Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Limerick, Ireland, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Supervised by Professor Tom Lodge Submitted to the University of Limerick, November, 2015 i ABSTRACT My research starts from the premise that the contemporary role of Nigeria’s regionally concentrated newspapers hubs in the current political dispensation, particularly after the return to civil rule in 1999, and their forward and backward linkages to content, ownership, public opinion, North/South politics and national integration has not been sufficiently investigated. Mainstream scholarship and a series of commentaries written within a framework of reference drawn from Marxist political economy reduce patterns of ownership to predominant class interests, an unproven assumption, especially for the post 1999 period. The press in Nigeria influenced decolonization (1940s), national independence (1960) and return of civil rule (1999); however, newspapers are polarised along regional and ethnic lines. This study investigates the political effects, if any, of regional concentration of newspaper ownership and production on democracy in Nigeria since 1999 on one hand while on the other; it evaluates the impact of newspapers’ regional concentration on the democratic process. Using mixed research methods, the findings indicate that in its current composition and by its institutional structures, the press in Nigeria is embedded in religious, ethnic, regional, geo-political imperatives that characterize the Nigerian State. -
