The study assessed the impact of multinational corporations on the development of Gokana Community in the Niger Delta region. It finds that in the case of Gokana, there is a relationship between the activities of multinational corporations and socio-economic development and that close links between multinationals and host communities result in more cordial relationships whereas weak links can lead to conflict and misunderstanding between stakeholders thereby obstructing sustainable development.
