The importance of corporate governance on achieving sustainable business practices especially in a developing country like Nigeria cannot be over-emphasized. The research design used in this study was the cross-sectional survey design, associated with the deductive approach used for descriptive research purpose, which was used to model the impact of corporate governance on sustainable business practices in Nigeria. This study analyzed the impact that corporate governance had on indicator variables of sustainable business practices such as: Environmental and Regulatory Framework, Good Corporate Citizens, Codes of Business Ethics, Stake Holders Treatments and Accountability of Officers. The findings elicited from this revealed that corporate governance recorded a positive impact on sustainable business practices in Nigeria within the scope of this study. This assertion was also in congruence with the findings elicited from past studies such as: Micah and Umobong 2013 and Babalola and Adedipe 2014 whom also recorded positive relationships.</abstract></article-meta></front><body /><back /></article>
