Both primary and secondary data were used in the paper. The data were sourced from print and online resources. The paper identified inadequate funding of ICT programme, inadequate ICT facilities, corruption, high cost of ICT facilities, poor internet services and unstable power supply as problems hindering educational planner from fully deploying information communication technologies for planning education in Nigeria. Based on this problems identified, the paper recommended that government should increase the funding of ICT programme, provide adequate ICT facilities, ensure stable internet services and power supply and capacity building programme for planner. The government should subsidize the cost of ICT and fight all forms of corruption in the educational institutions and schools.
