Nigerian Primary Health sector.
1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVE The aims and objective of this project can be stated as follows:
·
To study the existing ICT maturity models available with a view to
identifying and exposing the strengths and weaknesses of ICT in the
Primary Health Sector. · To identify an appropriate ICT maturity
model that would be most suitable for measuring the maturity of the
primary health sector using Egor Local Government Area as a case study.
·
To subsequently use and input the captured ICT maturity model for the
Primary Health Sector using Egor Local Government Primary Health Centre
as a case study. · To make appropriate recommendations based on
those findings in ICT maturity.

research will be using Egor Local Government Area as case study.
Dependent and independent variables to be used in this study will be
analyzed over a suitable time period.
1.5 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY This study was performed using several tools which include:

LIMITATION OF THE STUDY· Time was a major constraint since I
have had to combine my other academic work with this project work.
·
Access to materials and information that would have been available on
desired area has been denied for security reasons as companies felt it
could be used to deter their image.
· Insufficient data is
usually acquired therefore the only variables that can be tested are
those variables for which secondary data can generate from the
research.
