Corporate Democracy: Evaluation of The UK and Nigerian Laws

This book evaluates in comparative terms the UK and Nigerian laws relating to the concept of corporate majority rule as established in the Foss v Harbottle decision and the right of the minority shareholders of a company to have their interests protected from majority oppression. The key shareholder remedies of derivative claims and unfair prejudice or oppression are comparatively discussed with lessons drawn from the highlights of the similarities and differences in both remedies under the CA 2006 and CAMA 2004 with a view to making a case for reforms.
