The study examined the relationship between industrialization and the level of economic growth among nations in Africa from year 2013 to 2019. The study categorized African nations into five top industrialized nations and five least industrialized nations. Economic growth was proxy using Gross Domestic Product GDP and Per capita Gross Domestic Product GDP . Time series data on national GDP, population and level of industrialization were obtained from International Monetary Fund statistical data, the Worldometer and United Nation Industrial Development Organization UNIDO . By deploying the correlation statistics and t test aided by SPSS version 20, the study tested if there was any significant relationship between the mean GDP of the top five industrialized nations and the mean GDP of the least five industrialized nations. It further tested if there was any significance relation between the mean per capita GDP of the top five industrialized nations and the mean per capita GDP of the least five industrialized nations. Findings showed a high correlation between the mean GDP of the top five industrialized nations and the mean GDP of the least five industrialized nations. Again it was found that there is significance relationship between the mean per capita GDP of the top five industrialized nations and the mean per capita GDP of the least five industrialized nations. As both GDP and per capita GDP of both industrialized and least industrialized nations move in the same direction regardless of the level of industrialization, the study concluded that industrialization is yet to a significant relationship between GDP and per capita GDP of African nations. It was recommended, among other things, that African nations should make and implement policies that will unlock the effect of industrialization on the level of their GDPs and per capita GDPs.
