Abstract: The study looked at how the knowledge and positive involvement of women in Information Communication Technology (ICT) can assist in emancipating them. Women are integral part of the population that a country needs in development. However, the women of Nigeria for a long time in the history of the nation’s development have not been given their right of place. Information Communication Technology is a potent tool in meeting human basic needs. Unfortunately, the women that are the fulcrum on which development depends do not have good exposure to ICT. The study highlighted some of the problems inhibiting women’s effective participation and proffered useful solutions that will assist them in being fully functioning in the use of Information Communication Technology.
