520			_aIn the current era of digital transformation, considerable attention has been paid to the role that digital information plays in shaping academic performance in higher education institutions. This study explores the complex relationship between the use of digital information and academic outcomes, with a specific focus on African higher education institutions. This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how digital information affects student performance and engagement in an academic context. Using a quantitative research approach, data were collected via surveys supported by statistical tool. This study examined various aspects of digital information usage, including information needs, seeking behaviours, sources, exchange patterns, and user satisfaction. By analysing these factors, this study sought to identify the key determinants of academic performance that are influenced by the utilisation of digital information. The findings of this study can inform educational policymakers, administrators, and practitioners about the importance of incorporating digital literacy and information management skills into the higher education curriculum. This study also emphasises the socioeconomic consequences of digital information access and utilisation in African higher education, taking into account factors such as Internet connectivity, technological infrastructure, and the digital divide. By appreciating these contextual factors, educational institutions can create tailored interventions to support disadvantaged students and bridge this digital divide. In conclusion, this study highlights the importance of African higher education institutions in adapting to the ever-changing digital landscape and prioritises the formulation of strategies that optimise the utilisation of digital information for educational progress. Through proactive steps and informed interventions, these institutions can support student learning, foster academic excellence, and position themselves as leaders in the digital era.
