NCC clamps down on counterfeit mobile device sellers

Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has clamped down on sellers of counterfeit as well as non-type-approved devices as part of measures to protect consumers from losses and other discomforts.

While carrying out the arrest of representatives of three companies in Kano State, the commission warned Nigerians from patronage and use of such devices which it says were responsible for mainly the poor quality of service experiences. The culprits were handed over to the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) for investigation and further necessary action.
