Data were merged and pooled for analysis, the unit root test; co -integration, granger causality test, and regression were done accordingly. The paper established that there exists a significant negative relationship between capital structures (DER), a significant relationship between board size and a negative but not significant relationship between board duality and performance (ROA & ROE) in Nigeria respectively.
