This study reviewed conceptual, theoretical and empirical literature on problem affecting the effective use of information and communication technology in teaching and learning of mathematics in secondary schools. Data was collected using questionnaire and analyzed using inferential statistics such as multiple regression analysis. The hypotheses of the study was tested using the probability values of the estimates. The result of the regression analysis shows that Lack of confidence among teachers during integration and lack of access to resources was negatively related to the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics in the selected Public Secondary Schools in Makurdi Metropolis of Benue State and the relationship is statistically significant (p<0.05). Lack of time for the integration, lack of effective training and facing technical problems while the software is in use was negatively related to Teaching and Learning of Mathematics in the selected Public Secondary Schools in Makurdi Metropolis of Benue State and the relationship are not statistically significant (p>0.05). Lack of personal access to ICT materials during lesson preparation was positively related to Teaching and Learning of Mathematics in the selected Public Secondary Schools in Makurdi Metropolis of Benue State and the relationship is statistically significant (p<0.05). The age of the teachers was positively related to Teaching and Learning of Mathematics in the selected Public Secondary Schools in Makurdi Metropolis of Benue State but the relationship is not statistically significant (p>0.05). It was concluded that in order to bring about the effectiveness of ICT in the teaching and learning of Mathematics in the study area, all the factors that are responsible and identified in this study to be responsible for the poor teaching and learning of Mathematics should be addressed. It was recommended among others that a strong commitment, dedication, and desire of all are must to address these problems and improve the quality and equity in mathematics teaching and learning.
