The study assesses the response of Nigerian fiscal policy to a number of external shocks, namely; oil price, foreign aid and exchange rate shocks using Vector Autoregressive (VAR) estimation approach. The results show that fiscal policy in Nigeria is responsive to external shocks mainly oil price shocks, while shocks due to government revenue are also shown as significant for explaining economic activities measured by GDP in Nigeria.
