Universities in Nigeria aim to be on global map with better international rankings. Unfortunately, they are plagued with inefficient administration and management due to poor management of records and information. Universities, most of the cases are failed to comply with the National Universities Commission, which resulted higher possibilities of revoking their licenses. The need for effective records and information management is imperative. Information Governance deals with managing records and information for providing a meaningful solution to present situation. The essence of this study is to explore the critical factors (CFs) for implementing Information Governance (IG) framework in Nigerian universities. A qualitative research using case study approach with semi-structured interview technique was used to elicit data from 11 stakeholders in records and information management regarding the research topic in the case study university. Software for qualitative research analysis ATLAS-ti 7.0 was used to aid the data analysis. The research found that CFs such as funding, stakeholder involvement, policy, enabling environment, personnel and, information and communication technologies (ICT) are vital in implementing IG for universities.

尼日利亚的大学旨在在全球范围内拥有更好的国际排名。不幸的是，由于对记录和信息的管理不善，使他们的管理和管理效率低下。对于大学来说，大多数情况都没有遵守国家大学委员会的规定，这导致了吊销执照的可能性更高。必须进行有效的记录和信息管理。信息治理负责管理记录和信息，从而为当前情况提供有意义的解决方案。这项研究的实质是探索在尼日利亚大学中实施信息治理（IG）框架的关键因素（CF）。使用案例研究方法和半结构化访谈技术进行定性研究，从案例研究大学的研究主题的记录和信息管理中从11个利益相关者中获取数据。定性研究分析软件ATLAS-ti 7.0用于辅助数据分析。研究发现，诸如资金，利益相关者参与，政策，有利的环境，人员以及信息和通信技术（ICT）之类的CF对于在大学中实施IG至关重要。
