dc.description.abstractThe perennial problems of increased poverty, unemployment and overdependence on foreign goods and technology have become worrisome to the government. ICT as a highly potent developmental strategy can therefore be used to equip the youths with the necessary skills to be self-reliant. This paper examines the teachers’ perceived relevance of ICTs for the development of entrepreneurial skills among Nigeria teachers. A survey method was used, with questionnaire as the dominant instrument. Data were collected from a simple sample of 145 primary and secondary teachers drawn from three local governments in Ilorin metropolis, Kwara state. The data collected were analysed using percentage. Findings of the study revealed that ICT is not only an effective tool of instruction and learning but empowers Nigeria teachers. This reduces poverty and makes the country’s economy more efficient and globally competitive. It was recommended that the government should provide jobs for Nigerian youths through the use of ICT tools and initiate effort to make all educational programmes relevant to provide the youth the needed entrepreneurial skills.en_US
