Abstract

The word governance derived ultimately from the great verb govern, meaning to steer. It is the act, process or power of governing. Good Governance is, therefore, “the responsible use of political authority to manage a nation's affairs. It is the key to economic development and its key attributes are accountability, transparency, and participation of the people in the governance process, supremacy of the rule of law, elimination of corruption, democratic decision making, administrative efficiency and responsiveness to the needs of the people. A vivid and clearer understanding of the concept of good governance perhaps, could be made if some of the principles of good governance as mentioned above are briefly examined and explained.
