Using a survey research approach, the research integrates quantitative data from a survey of 30 SMEs across various sectors with the link of a well-structured questionnaire sent to a carefully determined sample of SMEs within Abuja and Lagos. The findings revealed that SMEs in Abuja and Lagos make use of ICTs for e-business, of which some of the tools are computers, internet, tablets, smartphones, videoconferencing, and more. Findings also showed that the adopted ICTs are effective in the conduct of the business activities of the SMEs. ICTs as utilised by the SMEs were found to be useful and therefore are suited for recommendations to other business people. The researchers conclude that ICTs are important in the business architecture of Nigeria and also recommend that strategic investments in ICT infrastructure, targeted training programmes, and supportive government policies are crucial for maximising the benefits of e-business for SMEs in Nigeria. These findings are of significance to business owners and the nation in general as they provide a comprehensive understanding of the critical role of ICT in the e-business architecture of Nigeria and how that can also contribute to the fostering of sustainable growth of gross domestic product (GDP). 2026 Mary Agamalafiya, Kelvin Inobemhe and Tsegyu Santas Subject The topic of the resource AI; Competition; E-business; enterprises; gross domestic product; ICT; L26; M54; medium; O33; Policy; Robots; SMEs; Start-ups Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Emerald Publishing Relation A related resource ISSN: 20407246; Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Article Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Restricted Access; Hardcopy may be available in the library Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource online
