The audit committee has been argued in the extant literature as a factor that can put to rest the prevalence of these scandals. Nevertheless, these scandals still recur. This study investigated the nexus between audit committee qualities and investors’ stake in quoted companies in Nigeria. Ex-post facto was adopted as the research design, while the Fixed Effect Panel Analysis and Pairwise Granger Causality Test were used to analyze the data.

This formed the basis for critical evaluation of the new contributory pension scheme introduced during Obasanjo regime with a view to determining its ability to arrest the problem of irregular payment of pension. It is believed that the appraisal of the new reform will improve strategies needed to achieve more positive result in carrying out this study. The history of the Nigerian Pensions administration dates back to the 1950s.The Pension Reforms Act of 2004 brought into limelight the new pension scheme in Nigeria which is a defined contributory scheme unlike the old scheme which was largely defined benefits. Although the new scheme is being adjudged to be better than the old scheme in that, it is expected to correct the deficiencies and inadequacies prevalent in the old scheme, it advocated that only proper coordination, supervision and regulation of the pension Industry in Nigeria will make it to happen.

It was based on this premise that, this study sought to examine the economic development and oil revenue in Nigeria. In doing this, regression analysis was carried out using SPSS. The result revealed the overdependence of Nigeria economy on oil revenue. Thus, this paper recommends policies and functional institutions to checkmate the poor transparency in the management of oil revenue that robbed the people of their potential benefits and economy diversification that will lead to improvement in revenue generation via other sources in the economy.
