Corporate governance has never been this important in Nigeria’s history with regard to management of private and public corporations. The current administration considers the private sector as the foundation for accelerated growth and development of the economy and this has awakened a new interest in corporate governance that will engender sustainable growth and development. This is reflected in the current move to harmonise various codes of corporate governance. This paper examines the role that Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) can play in enhancing good corporate governance in Nigeria. The authors conclude that if ADR is effectively utilised in resolving boardroom squabbles and investment disputes, time and money will be saved and such money saved can be reinvested to grow the economy and generate employment.
