This study examines the existence and multiplicity of non-negative solutions of the following fractional $ p $-sub-Laplacian problem
$ \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{aligned} &(-\Delta_{p,g})^{s}u = \lambda f(x)|u|^{\alpha-2}u+ h(x)|u|^{\beta-2} u \quad&\rm{in}\,\,\, &\Omega,\\ &\,\,\, u = 0\quad\quad &\rm{in} \,\,\, &\mathbb{G}\setminus \Omega, \end{aligned}\right. \end{equation*} $
where $ \Omega $ is an open bounded in homogeneous Lie group $ \mathbb{G} $ with smooth boundary, $ p>1 $, $ s\in(0,1) $, $ (-\Delta_{p,g})^{s} $ is the fractional $ p $-sub-Laplacian operator with respect to the quasi-norm $ g $, $ \lambda>0 $, $ 1< \alpha<p <\beta < p^*_{s} $, $ p^*_{s}: = \frac{Qp}{Q-sp} $ is the fractional critical Sobolev exponents, $ Q $ is the homogeneous dimensions of the homogeneous Lie group $ \mathbb{G} $ with $ Q> sp $, and $ f $, $ h $ are sign-changing smooth functions. With the help of the Nehari manifold, we prove that the nonlocal problem on homogeneous group has at least two nontrivial solutions when the parameter $ \lambda $ belong to a center subset of $ (0,+\infty) $.
