Abstract
This study assessed the role of ICf in the management of higher education for sustainable development in Nigeria. Data were collected from 800 lecturers selected from 16 higher education institutions in the country. The findings were that accessibility of ICf facilities is still very low and that. although lecturers have a positive disposition towards the use of ICf facilities. they scarcely use them. The study also found that the respondents believe in the
potential of lCfs to positively transform higher education. It highlighted the ranking of some factors hindering effective usage of ICf in the management of higher education for sustainable development. In light of these findings. it is recommended that lCf facilities are made available and accessible in higher education institutions and that relevant end-user training be provided to enhance usage of the facilities once they are available.
