ABSTRACT
The main objective of the study is on the assessment of the impact of industrialization on economic growth of Nigeria. The study however investigates the economic growth vis-à-vis industrial output, investment and inflation. Ordinary Least Square (OLS) is used to estimate the three major macroeconomic variables with a view to justifying their effects on electricity generation in Nigeria. The result of the findings further indicates that there is significant relationship between industrial sector and economic growth of Nigeria. The study therefore recommends among others that government should support other sectors of the economy such as transport and public utility which are crucial to industrial sectors by reducing their service cost.
