LAGOS, NIGERIA– The Society for Corporate Governance Nigeria (SCGN) has actually taken a significant action toward sterilizing Nigeria’s future business landscape by inaugurating its first-ever student chapter at the University of Lagos (UNILAG).
The “SCGN Corporate Governance Club” was released on Friday, March 6, 2026, marking a brand-new age of ethical management training for the next generation of Nigerian experts.
The initiative is the pilot stage of a more comprehensive nationwide program designed to embed concepts of integrity, responsibility, and transparency into the academic and professional development of university students.
Delivering the keynote address, the Handling Director of SCGN, Chioma Mordi, challenged the 80 pioneer members to see management as a duty to society rather than a personal advantage.

She emphasized that the corporate world of the future will prioritize leaders who stabilize technical competence with sound ethical judgment.
The event included the official swearing-in of the club’s pioneer executive committee, performed by the Chief Operating Officer of SCGN, Dr. Tola Bamigbaiye-Elatuyi.
The occasion was participated in by leading academic figures, consisting of the Dean of the Professors of Law, Prof. Abiola Sanni, and former Dean, Prof. Ige Bolodeoku.
The club, though student-led, will receive direct mentorship and resources from SCGN. Its membership covers eight departments, reflecting the company’s belief that governance is an interdisciplinary necessity.
SCGN exposed that UNILAG acts as the launchpad for a nationwide and continental rollout. Strategies are currently underway to establish comparable chapters at Lagos State University (LASU) and Pan-Atlantic University (PAU) before broadening across Africa.
