چکیده
The paper sought to examine the impact of Free Trade Area on Nigeria’s domestic industries from 1980 2019. It employed autoregressive distributive lag (ARDL) estimation technique analyze short-run and long-run relationships between independent explanatory variables, thereby validating objective study. All variables were stationary after first difference, except Ease Doing Business (EDB). In short run, all statistically significant two-period lags. However, in long estimated ARDL results revealed negatively related industrial growth Nigerian economy. Such a negative relationship (FTA) as captured by trade openness output will portend deleterious consequence sector By implication, when fully consummated with dearth infrastructure coupled lack competitive network structures, ensure that Nigeria becomes manifestly dependent imported goods produced low-cost production centres Africa. Based this conclusion, it is recommended cautious guided opening economy should be operational template rest Africa terms Continental (AfCFTA).
