ABSTRACT
This global modern technologies in the nineties had been such a glaring and widely exciting experience. This leaves no body even a Thomas in doubt of what situation and trend will look like even as we are now in the 21st century.
Expectedly, there will be an era of complete and total information revolutionary Age. This period which is entire world finds themselves how is a peculiar and highly sophisticated communication age that is characterized by a “Net-compact technology”.
In this topic of study , the role of modern technologies in achieving communication efficiency, its very unfortunate and most painful that as the rest of the world are now in the modern information technology, Nigeria and in fact the whole of African continent is still so abysmally bondaged and far from this information paradise and communication age. This study aims at assessing critically the function of modern technologies in the course of achieving efficiency in communication in Nigeria.
One can therefore review that the contention was that instead of moving ahead with others, we had decided to go backwards and abysmally into the remote ancestral enclave of our fore fathers.
The statistical instrument used in deriving the sample size is the questionnaire which was distributed randomly to some students in tertiary institutions, civil servants and also some communication executives.
Nigeria needs to be in line with modern technologies in the race towards achieving efficiency in communication. And therefore, it recommended that Nigeria government should start to support some information and communication programmes and projects which will be capable of turning round the communication culture turning round the communication culture to the yearnings and aspirations of Nigerians.

INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The key to success in the global technology is to celebrate technology the global technology is to celebrate technology rather than hide it away and to really start developing it where nothing has been done “Masayuki Kukokowa (Japanese).
This new or modern information technology I networked or webbed information. This metamorphic transformation points increasingly to practical terms, a global information technology.
It is best described as a new millennium. It is compact, sophisticated, revolutionary, goal-oriented and to sum up, a complex but cherishable culture of the new society. BILL GATE as a giant in the present information technology ushered in the webbed information global phenomena. The west as well as the North have shown tremendously a growing wave and crave for information revolution.
Nigeria has remained in an abysmal trance and has steadily watched the rest of the world being ahead of her in the present dispensation. Improvement takes two things, creativity and experience. What this study emphasize is the place of modern technologies in achieving communication efficiency and argument for our critigue is not whether Nigeria has shown any interest in modern technologies but the extent to which these modern technologies have helped in achieving communication efficiency in the new millennium. When a retrospect is made, I easily recall that communication got its name from the Latin name “Communis” meaning show commonness. This further implies an exchange of ideas, values, thinking and orientations among people from different geographical, political, economic, social, cultural, religious and then lingual expressions.
The history of communications and information technology dates back to Shakespearean “ACTADIURA” and plausible information invention. Successively and very glaring, society is dynamic and so is the communication word. The parries primitive Egyptian technologist become the “IN THING” crude as it was, it served the same purpose any other model can serve today.
Gutenberg came and endowed the world with letter and printing presses. It was an era of a blood based catalytic information outreached and development. As society continued to grow, move and move horizons were exposed and humanity (technologists) availed themselves of the opportunity and then as far back as 1859, a Reverend gentleman by name Henry Townsend after looking for a better way to reach the illiterate interior Nigeria societies established the first Newspaper, “IWE-IROHIN’. A paper for the Egbe and Yorubas. The transformation continued through the electronic media channels; Television, Radio and others. Thus, the present millennium where the internet operations, digital phones, keeping compact systems, cellular mobile systems, computerized data-base information inventions, e-mails, Fax-technologies which take the domain of the global information is to only exciting but interesting. T.W. Kang-a Tokoyo based business consultant noted that “The real purpose of the new information technology is to increase efficiency and competitiveness.
Not only that the entire national technological culture is in a sorry state, communication is suffering an even deadlier scourge. There is no opportunity for creativity, skill and experience, research and other things capable of engendering positivism in the information environment are lacking.
Strange is the problem in Nigerian that this study faces one singular problem of finding out the rate of communication efficiency in the face of the modern information technology. The information technology being referred to have will not only serve to educate, socialize, entertain and crystallize ideas but the type that will bring us nearer to the rest of the world in the minute lapse of time within unimaginable distance.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE RESEARCH PROBLEM
“The world is dynamic and so is every thing inside it” Professor
Rosecoe Pound.
With the above excerpt, it is primarily clear that the global information culture is changing and never static. This change has created a venue for improvement and sophistication of man’s efforts towards technology prowess. Good enough, it is true though a bitter fact that this technological success has equally been unfriendly in some considerations. The race forward id such that no one individual, group or society can readily afford to miss it. The understanding of this promise and its appreciation brings the problems of this study into focus.
This study has the first and most obvious problems of X-raying the role of modern technology in achieving communication efficiency. Nigeria is at the vantage point and hence the task of evaluating and critically assessing the country, that is, its readiness, prepardness or other problems which will be a challenge for this study. The journey into the 21st century is gradual but steady. It cannot be changed and with it is the climax of revolution in all aspects of life of the society ie its culture, language politics, philosophy, economy, science, religion, technology vis-à-vis the social dynamics.
I have a strong problem in this study. The problem is investigating the global communication technology in the new millennium marrying it with a critical review, a Nigerian experience. Communication and infact our information culture,
mediocrity has replaced education and excellence cum professionalism in our media, instead of moving to the “net” and “web” system, Nigeria is heading back to the primitive days of oral communication. The status quo is further made sick by the draconia laws put together by heinous politicians in an attempt to muzzle communication efficiency. In this earnest search for a way out, I ask and present it as and among the problems of this study the question of who becomes the BILL GATE and JAMES BACKDALE in Nigeria.
1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The decision to carry out a study, be it academic qualification
study, case study. and other various forms of study calls to the mind a
purpose for which such study is originally intended.
Empirically therefore this study has its primary purpose to
critically assess the Role of modern technologies in achieving
communication efficiency as it concerns Nigeria. Happily, what we
have today with respect to communication has been a remarkable
improvement and total manifestation mankind’s strong spirit in the
race into the twenty first (21st) century.
This study therefore concentrated on these notable and
ndispensable successes of the past and present and use it as a yardstick
to determine the status quo in the nearest further. Thus information
will be laid on the internet, E-mail, digital phones, computer data
base, information super high way, to mention but a few. Interestingly,
the need and role all these play in our overall business, political life,
freedom of expressions and disseminating of information and also the
place of the modern information technology on the question of test of
validation of potency and strength of God in the face of internet “ever
dynamic web” that had webbed the world.
The research will additionally buttress the discussion on how only Nigerian has remained clumoving in this all important global race. The “Net” has become more and more opportunity to shoot out information from most restrictive areas and zones.
Should this be the reason why the development of internet communication is not given a chance of motivation by the government? The purpose of this study once move is to analyse all these discoveries strickly coordination without prejudice, make decision, conclusions and recommendations for the future.
- SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The significance of this study is without doubt enormous. It is
better described as a revolutionary study into an entirely new age of information technology and dissemination which has also been known as “communication revolution” infact a millennium .
To the students and future researchers in the same area, this study will serve as a harvest of knowledge and a discovery of some hidden and silent ideas about the modern communication and culture. It is axiomatic to posit here that to the researcher personally, this study assures him of not only knowledge but the inspirations, aspirations, zeal and will to explore more horizons in this virgin but glaring area of communication research.
Furthermore, the study will be beneficial to the society, organizations and her agencies will not only see the need to imbibe the modern communication culture into their environment but equally give support, incentive and motivation towards the sustainability of this eventful ideas and communication agenda.
Moreover, to beginners in the communication industry, the successes of BILL GATE and JAME BACKDALE at Microsoft America will serve as an impetus to their concerted efforts towards recognition. This study will help them in this direction by not only laying down the golden rule that ‘success can only come where determination breeds” but their determination complemented by eludiluted dedications is a hallmark of a reasonable and rational success. The discussion on the significance of this study will not be completed if mention is not made on the role it will play in finding the solution to Nigeria’s sick movement of his tory.
