The validity of the instrument was tested using content analysis and the result was good. The reliability was tested using the Pearson correlation coefficient (r). It gave a reliability co-efficient of 0.87 which was also good. The hypotheses were analyzed using f-statistics (ANOVA). The study shows that diversifying policy management plays significant role in the development of Nigeria economy. Economic diversification is the process of expanding the range of economic activities both in the production and distribution of goods and services.
