'ABSTRACT This study seeks to examine if foreign direct investments has an impact on the economy of Nigeria over the period of 1985 till date. This study will be using multiple regressions in analysis, using the ordinary least square (OLS) regression technique to determine if there is a relationship and impact of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) on the Nigerians economic growth., the main source of data will be secondary which will be sourced from World Bank and different publications of CBN (central bank of Nigeria) which are the annual report, statistical bulletin, and statements of accounts. The result therefore reveals that FDI impacted negatively but significantly, which were due to the economic instability of other variables on the Nigeria economic growth within the period under study also at a 5% level of statistical significant which shows that when there is a good performance in the economy it can lead to a positive sign for the flow of FDI, this goes further to imply that FDI can be seen as the engine of the country's economic growth when running under a conducive and stable environment. Based on the expected results, recommendations such as the provision of adequate infrastructure and policy framework will be conducive for operating business in Nigeria, so as to attract the inflow of FDI necessary to stimulate growth. Brewer (1993) Key words: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Gross Domestic Product Growth (GDPg), Ordinary Least Square (OLS).'
