The study adopted the ex-post facto design. Yearly panel data, quantitative technique, and judgemental sampling technique were used.

The study adopted the ex-post facto design. Yearly panel data, quantitative technique, and judgemental sampling technique were used. The study focused on commercial banks that have shown proven evidence of consistent payment of cash dividends. The mathematical tool was used to determine the RPR, MAPR, RPD, MAPD, and MAAR respectively. It was documented that stock price drop / fall more than the dividend amount on the ex-dividend day, thereby creating an abnormal return to short term traders. Also, there exists a strong positive association between ex-div days and dividends and cum-div days. The impact of the economic recession is adverse on stock prices, and this creates downward pressure/ shock on share prices as unstable investors rush to sell their stock ex- or cum-div. We, therefore, suggest that investors should convert their investment into more risk-free securities like gold, government bond, treasury bills, etc.
