Poverty is one of the greatest challenges facing Nigeria and a recent scale has shown that unemployment, income inequality, are among the main causes of poverty in Nigeria and sustainable poverty eradication is unlikely to be achieved without the proper use of ICT. ICT plays a major role in all aspects of national life: in politics, in economic life, as well as in social and cultural development. It is rapidly transforming our lives, the way we do business, access information and services. It fuels the global economy. IT has played major roles in alleviating poverty in different many ways, especially in the lives of youths whose hopes were almost shattered after finishing school and not finding jobs.
