ABSTRACT
The research was undertaking to ascertain the effects of
budget deficits in the Nigerian economy. Ex-post facto research design was
adopted using secondary data extracted from the annual report of the CBN and
statistical bulletin from 2005-2014. The study used the ordinary least square
method of simple regression to analyze the research work and the variables were
logged based on the fact that they are of different magnitudes. The study
revealed that the estimated coefficient of the regression parameter has a
positive sign which implies that there is very high relationship between budget
deficits and the various dependent variables. It was recommended that the
government should introduce Structural Adjustment Programme to adjust of the
budget some of the budget made before approval, to minimize their external
borrowing and stick to plan.
