The total population for this study comprises 1,500 lecturers in four colleges of education in South West, Nigeria. 10% was drawn from the total population using a random sampling technique giving a total of 150 which form the sample size for the study. A questionnaire was used to collect data from the respondents. Findings from this study revealed among others that ICT and digital literacy skills when applied will to a very large extent be a tool for an efficient teaching aid for lecturers in colleges of education in Nigeria, that computers, printers, photocopiers, projectors, interactive whiteboards/electronic notice board, internet facility, and CD Rom will to a very large extent serve as ICT tools that can be used for effective teaching.
