Abstract
In the context of the rapid growth of mobile computing penetration in developing countries, mobile telephony is currently considered to be particularly important for such development. Yet, until recently, very little systematic evidence was available that shed light on the developmental impacts of mobile computing. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the problems and prospects of mobile computing in Nigeria. The paper will be analyzed by theme in order to provide a thematic overview as well as a comparative analysis of the development role of mobile computing. In exploring the evidence from completed projects as well as the foci of new projects, the paper summarizes and critically assesses the key findings and suggests possible avenues for future research.
