| dc.description | Using Granger causality test, th is paper examines the question of pairwise causal relationships between total export (oil export) and GDP of Nigeria during the period 1960-1985. Both simple and instantaneous causality tests were carried out along the line proposed by Pierce and Haugh (1977). The tests results show the existence of strict econometric exogeneity between export and GOP and a un idirectional causality from GDP to Oil export. The statistical evidence thus imply a rejection of the export promotion policies as effective development strategies in Nigeria. But in the instantaneous framework a feedback effect is observed and this consolidates the export promotion hypothesis contemporaneously. | |
