Abstract
Electronic communication is still very weak in
Nigeria as very few organizations are making
adequate use of the facility. The major problems
militating against the adoption of sending
messages electronically in Nigeria include:
- a low-level computing culture;
- a poor telecommunications infrastructure; and,
- a general lack of awareness.
However, there are some positive developments
which indicate that Nigeria might soon emerge
out of the doldrums and join the global electronic
network village. One such key development is the
extension of the project for Capacity Building for
Electronic Communication in Africa (CABECA) to
Nigeria.
