Econometric model of data analysis was adopted in the study, the hypotheses on the signlcance of the relationship between tax revenue and Nigeria economic growth was tested i'ith multiple regression analysis to analyze the data. The findings reveal that petroleum profit tax, company income tax, value added tax and personal income tax have a positive impact on Nigeria 's economic growth while custom excise and duties impacted negatively but overall, a significant relationship between tax revenue and the Nigerian economic growth exists. The i.itiiization of the generated revenue from taxes calls for serious concern, anti requires a special attention of policy makers, non-compliance with tax laws on the part of the tax payers is a hindrance and ineffective administration of tax has given enough loop holes for tax evasion, the consequence of which is poor revenue.
