Abstract

The rate at which ICT is growing is alarming. Governments across the globe have realized how important it is to utilize ICT. More so the relative importance it plays in the adoption, implementation and development of E-government. Developed and developing countries are constantly engaging ICT to deliver efficient and effective service to its citizens and businesses. Sufficient literature exists in e-government domain but there is limited literature on the adoption of e-government in developing countries. Using a qualitative approach, this paper explores the adoption of e-voting in Nigeria by identifying e-government definitions, challenges and the situation in both developed and developing countries. Research findings indicate that there are specific elements (environmental, technical, social, and economic) factors that are considered critical and also serve as a barrier to successful e-government adoption. These factors have to be addressed to pave way for successful adoption.
