ABSTRACT
The study investigates
the effect of external debt on economic growth in Nigeria. The study however
investigates the level of real Gross Domestic Product vis-à-vis external debt,
external reserve, debt service and government expenditure. Ordinary Least
Square [OLS] is used to estimate four major macroeconomic variables in order to
justify their effects on economic growth. The results of the findings further
suggest that external debt has a significant impact on the level of economic
growth in Nigeria. Therefore, the study recommends among others that African
debtor nations should come together to form a union and bargain with their
creditor’s guild rather than facing such guild of London and Paris Club
individually, and that the government should ensure that the money saved from
debt cancellation is invested in changing the lives of millions of people in
Nigeria by providing more educational and health facilities.
