Thus study examines the effect of external reserves on the macro-economic stability of Nigeria. For the period of thirty-two years from 1985 to 2017. The dependent variables were GDP, Exchange rate, inflation rate and unemployment rate while the independent variable is the external reserves. The ordinary least squares was used to analyse the data, and the results showed that the external reserves have effect on unemployment rate, inflation rate, exchange rate and GDP. Therefore the study concludes that external reserves have effect on Macro- economic stability of Nigeria. The study recommends among others that the Federal Government should diversity her revenue base to Agriculture, Hospitality and tourism sectors among other sectors in order to remain stable even when there is financial and economic crisis around the world.
