Company Law and Practice in Nigeria

by Clement C. Chigbo

Company Law and Practice in Nigeria
is a worthy roadmap in navigating the entire gamut of Nigerian
Corporate law. It begins with a concise history of company law in
Nigeria, examines the creation of companies, founding documents and
contracts, corporate finance, officers, principles, corporate
governance, filings, restructuring and taxation. It also captures and
feeds readers on provisions of recent corporate legislations in Nigeria,
namely the Companies and Allied Matters Act 2020.

Unlike its contemporaries, Company Law and Practice in Nigeria
extensively expatiates on the application of Company Law in practice,
through a repository of recent judicial decisions. In addition, Business
Names and Incorporated Trustees are not left out, as the book conveys
statutory stipulations and regulatory prescriptions concerning their
creation and operation in Nigeria.

The authors who are
knowledgeable in the sphere of corporate law and practice have presented
a topical book and it is highly recommended for companies, corporate
lawyers, in-house counsel, attorneys, corporate academics, law students
and persons seeking clarification on any aspects of Nigerian Corporate
Law and Practice.
