dc.description.abstractDoes broadband deployment affect economic development? Does limited internet capacity mitigate economic development? Can deployment of broadband fast track Nigeria's economic development? This paper addresses these questions using the historical survey method. Broadband is currently a major factor in the ICT sector and its ability to connect communities at a very high speed is one of many reasons why Nigeria, with an estimated population of 174,507,539 and a land mass of 923,768 square kilometers should engage this vital catalyst to aid the transformation of her economy. The paper traces the role of broadband in global economic development, Nigeria's broadband adoption policies, the problems facing the expansion of Nigeria's broadband capacity, government policies such as the Nigeria National Broadband Plan 2013-2018 and the economic benefits of unlimited broadband capacity in a developing nation like Nigeria. The paper concludes that improvising the distribution of broadband will not only lead to the general incorporation of its citizenry with fast and affordable Internet connection but also contribute loftily to economic development in Nigeria.en_US
