Results. The impact of financial deepening was positive and statistically significant in explaining agricultural growth, but the performance of the manufacturing sector was not significantly impacted in the reviewed period, hence government should make efforts to reduce the interest rate on loan bestowed to the private sector.

Particularly, this study considers financial deepening as a significant determinant of sectoral development in the Nigerian context. Practical value / implications.
