The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has given a January 9, 2025 deadline to all licensed operators to update their contact information in line with the Licensing Regulations 2019.
The directive is part of the NCC’s broader strategy to improve its regulatory framework, strengthen oversight, and bolster Nigeria’s telecommunications sector.
The Commission warned that failure to provide accurate and up-to-date information could result in sanctions, including fines, suspension, or license revocation. While specific penalties were not disclosed, the NCC emphasized the importance of accurate contact details in ensuring prompt responses to industry developments and maintaining effective engagement.
NCC’s Director of Public Affairs, Reuben Mouka, in a statement, said the licensees are required to report any changes to their contact details within seven days of occurrence. Updates are also to be submitted to the Commission’s eServices platform at https://eservices.ncc.gov.ng.
