The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has attracted commendation from stakeholder for its efficient regulatory processes that have given verve to the realisation of full digital economy in the country.
A statement by NCC spokesperson Reuben Muoka Tuesday, disclosed that the commendations were made at the opening of the AfricaNext show in Lagos.
According to the statement, Chief Executive Officer of CashToken Africa, Mr. Lai Labode, said the manner with which the Commission understands and supports the emergence of companies that have critical roles to play in actualising the dreams of the digital economy, promises that Nigeria will make the desired impact in the future of the country’s Information and Communication Technology (ICT) development.
Labode said NCC’s approach to transform the telecom industry and contribute to the Federal Government’s digital economy agenda was reflected in the diligence, speed and smartness in processing recent applications including that of CashToken, which, he said, had led to a major collaboration with Mobile Network Operators.
Other participants also spoke about the demonstration of commitment to efficiency in NCC’s operations and attainment of excellence in regulatory oversight, a key item in the Commission’s extant Five-Point Agenda for transforming the telecom sector.
