Abstract
The outbreak of COVID 19 in the early year 2020 has caused a major collapse in the Economic of most countries in the world and the Educational sector is not left out. Most activities in the entire world have been brought to an abrupt stoppage with the Government giving an order of sit at home to most citizens in other to curtail and reduce the spread of the disease. The order has also effected students generally especially in most higher institutions to compulsorily sit at home and receive lectures online so as to ensure that the school calendar is not much affected. Therefore, this paper emphasizes on the issues, challenges, observations and necessary solutions to making the online learning effective in higher educational institutions in Nigeria. In the course of this study, an online survey was carried out to know how satisfied Nigerian higher Institutions students are with the online learning and also to know the issues and challenges they have encountered during the course of the online teaching. The outcome of the survey indicated that the online learning will be more appreciated if certain issues and challenges are attended to by the Government and the managements of higher institutions so as to improve the quality and expected result from the online learning. Some of the issues and challenges encountered by the students are due to economic challenges in the country such as the high level of poverty in the country which has handicapped some parents to purchase an android phone that can be used for the online learning and some the inability to consistently purchase data, network issue is also a limiting factor in the effectiveness of students participation in the online teaching, adequate explanation, proper understanding and little or no adequate knowledge on the usage of the E-learning platform.
