ABSTRACT
This study investigated the effect of exchange rate on Nigeria’s non-oil sector outputs, with
emphasis on the agricultural, manufactural and service sectors over a period of 1970-2012
through the co integration and the ECM approach. The co integration test showed that there was
a long run relationship between the variables. Evidence suggested that exchange rate by has a
negative non-significant effect on the agricultural and manufacturing sectors and a nonsignificant
positive effect on the service sector. The study found other factors such as inflation
and ratio of private sector credit to GDP affecting non-oil sector outputs; this implies that the
state of the non-oil output growth in Nigeria could be explained by other macroeconomic factors
and probably due to instability experienced during the period under review. It can be concluded
that exchange rate fluctuations is not an important variable affecting non-oil sectoral output of
the country. Other factors affecting non-oil sector output like inflations and commercial bank
credit should be looked into and addressed to revamp the non-oil sectors in Nigeria.
