dc.description.abstractIt is difficult today to read a newspaper or watch the news without noticing the changes that continually affect the world. The Middle East, Central America, Southern Africa and many other countries demonstrate social transition and transformation in many dimensions. Information revolution has come to transform the structure of many societies, particularly as they free the human mind, open new vistas in knowledge and allow technologies to increasingly take on human qualities. The impact of the development of the information society on a nation's development and social change is now a question of discussion. It is against this background that this paper examined communication revolution and social change in Nigeria. The paper concluded that new communication technologies as tools for Nigeria's socio-economic transformation have been drawn mainly from the experiences and exploits of western industrialized countries. In spite of the little progress that Nigeria and Africa has made in the age of new communication technology, many people still hold the fear that communication revolution has come with a lot of problems
