Abstract
This paper sets out to examine problems in the introduction of computer technology into the Nigerian educational system, with sample schools from Surulere Local Education District. The questionnaire approach was used on students, teachers, school heads and education officials, both male and female in Surulere L.E.D. of Lagos State.
Data collected were analysed in table using simple percentages. Adequacy of computer trained personnel, irregular public power supply, in adequacy of the available
computer sets, and prohibitive cost of the computer sets were the identified problems.
The paper suggested the need for more resources and subsidy on the present cost of computers by the government. The organised private sector and non government
organisations should also assist the educational sector.
