Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in Northern Nigeria:





Abstract





 





The main constraints to the use of

information and communications technology (ICT) in Northern Nigeria are

identified, argued and related to the setting up of a common computerized

system based on the National Bureau of Statistics’ (NBS) report which places

mostly northern states at the bottom of the list with exception of Kogi.

Examples of existing technologies are given to provide guidelines as to how

technology can successfully be used in Northern Nigeria despite these

constraints. It is concluded that staff training, international operation and

socio-political attitudes are the priority areas the region should consider.

New technology can be successfully introduced and become useful only if there

is the political will and the stakeholders are fully loyal to the plan.
