The variables used in the analysis are Gross Domestic product (GDP) was used as dependent variable, oil price, exchange rate and interest rate was used as the independent variable.

It was recommended that Since oil price is positively related to economic growth, government should utilize properly the proceeds received from oil occasioned by oil price increase to basic and improve basic infrastructures like good and motorable roads, quality education and stable power supply. Government should as a matter of urgency create both vertical and horizontal linkages in oil sector to diversify the economy through the proceeds from oil.
