We conceive administration as being confronted with and as being part of a constantly changing situation, situations which although they may resemble others in generic ways, are always unique in their particularities.

It is based on this important note that the topic: the role of public administration a tool for effective, efficient development in Nigeria’ with particular reference to Ngor Okpala Local Government Area Imo State.
