Nigeria’s dynamic and complex business setting has made attaining and sustaining firms’ performance an
arduous task for business executives in modern times. As a result, it is essential that they develop and

schemes as corporate social responsibility factors on company performance in Lagos State, Nigeria.
Primary data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Three-hundred and sixty-one (361)
respondents were drawn from the study population (3,680), adopting a simple random sampling technique.
