    There has been a renewed interest among the academia globally in regard to the corporate governance practices of modern corporations in our decade. One of the most critical practices that stand out tall is corporate governance and its implications in promoting good business practices. This research sought to interrogate and investigate the impact of good corporate governance on promoting ethical business practices by observing the underlying values enshrined in the Stakeholder Theory, Stakeholder Model and the OECD/PSICG corporate governance principles using a descriptive research design. Sampling technique adopted was probability, simple random sampling and the sample size was ninety five (95) top management officers at KRA. The data was analyzed using the Predictive Analytical Software (PASW). One of the key findings of this study was that good corporate governance had improved ethical business practices through increased accountability and transparency at KRA A key recommendation was given that training on corporate governance for top management officers should be enhanced to ensure awareness of their roles, duties, responsibilities and obligations.
