An aggregate import demand function for Nigeria: an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach

In achieving this, the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) technique was utilised to estimate the aggregate import demand function for Nigeria using the quarterly data covering the period 1970 to 2011.
