A rebirth in the telecom sector

There is good news. The good news is the recent drive by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to rejig the operations of the NCC to further improve consumer quality of experience and build on the industry’s resilience. There is no doubt that there is a new sheriff in town.

The new Executive Vice Chairman (EVC) of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Dr Aminu Maida, has said he would align the Commission’s regulatory focus to achieve the promises of the Strategic Roadmap of the Minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, Dr. Bosun Tijani, which of course derives from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda to advance the nation’s digital transformation. This is a bold one, and the indices are already visible.
