This paper presents a review of the use of Information Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructures for human development as an approach to improving peoples’ general wellbeing and productivity particularly in the low human development countries. It was observed that the deployment of ICT infrastructures in governance mechanism have remarkable capability to lower human deprivation. Its provision in the forms of internet, personal computers, cloud computing, electronic mail and mobile phones as brought digital opportunity, which in turn made information and knowledge available for all seamlessly. Furthermore, its application has brought improvement in the economy, commerce, living standard, healthcare delivery and live expectancy, and access to higher education system. Finally, it has improved the way of living through the use of artificial intelligence in human daily activities. However, its use in Nigeria is bedeviled by lack of basic education and ICT skill, obsolete equipment, high cost of modern ICT equipment, epileptic electricity supply, and high cost of internet connectivity. However, it is recommended that deployment of ICT infrastructures in the governance of the underdeveloped countries will reduce human deprivation and thus bridged the gap in human development between the low human development and very high human development countries.
