Abstract: Globalization as a development concept and strategy is all-encompassing and transnational in orientation and strategy with far-reaching implications on the social, cultural, economic and political development of every nation, especially the developing nations. The major concern of development administration is to achieve accelerated development in developing nations to meet up with the developed nations. Achieving the objectives of development administration given the trend in globalization seems to be a major challenge in Nigeria. The quest to achieve development seems to be a herculean task in Nigeria, despite its endowments in human and natural resources. Using qualitative data derived from secondary sources, the paper examines the intricacies in globalization as it affects efforts at achieving the objectives of development administration in Nigeria. Content analyses of the data collected reveal that globalization no doubt has its positive and negative impacts on the Nigeria Economy. However, the negative impacts are more obvious with great consequences on the quest to achieve the objectives of development administration in Nigeria. The paper suggests that the government should exercise the political will to encourage indigenous industry and technology by creating the right environment, among others.
