Abstract
The whole world has turned to the use of Information and Communication Technologies to enhance the social, economic, political, educational and health deliveries of their people. The success recorded in almost every aspect of human life has been a result of the use and application of these technologies. The advent of the e-strategies such as e-voting, e-commerce, e-governance, e-learning, e-banking, e-shopping, e-medicine, and e-health was as a result of the evolution in the field. However, despite these improvements in the ICT, Nigeria is yet to fully tap from these enormous benefits accruable from these technologies. In this paper, the areas of focus would be the management of health information, infrastructure, and health delivery services. The problems often encountered in the system would also be examined, discussed and solutions proffered.
