ABSTRACT
The core objective of any nation is to achieve sustained
economic growth. Economic growth refers to increases in a country's production
or income per capita, economic growth refers to the increase in goods and
services available over time. However, the poor saving habit of most developing
countries creates a savings and investment gap which leads to paucity of funds
to finance development projects by the governments thus most countries resort
to external borrowing as a means to bridging the financial constraint induced
by savings investment gap (Umaru et al; 2015).
