This paper examines the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on adult and non-formal education provision and delivery in Nigeria, the challenges, and way forward to better equip the various programmes participants to benefit maximally in the present global village using Information and Communication Technology (ICT). It also highlights the need to reposition ANFE during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond for the achievement of the SDGs target in Nigeria by 2030.
