Abstract

There have been debates on the impact of foreign direct investment on the economic growth of the host country. Some researchers identified a favorable effect, while others discovered a negative effect. This study looked at the impact of foreign direct investment on Nigeria's economic growth in this context. As a result, the study determined that foreign direct investment had a beneficial impact on Nigeria's economic growth, contrary to the conclusions and beliefs of certain experts and other stakeholders who believe that foreign direct investment has a detrimental impact. The government should upgrade the country’s infrastructure in order to promote real investments in the economy, according to the report.
