Nigerian telcos seek reforms to sustain sector

ATC chose NEC XON equipment to maintain constant visibility of tower infrastructure, allowing locals to enjoy dependable access to internet services.

The competition is open to all tech innovators, from early-stage start-ups to established companies looking to showcase their latest products.

Minister Minette Libom Li Likeng wants to assess the level of implementation of commitments taken by the mobile operators and compliance with recommendations given by government.

The telco highlighted worries about the monopoly granted to the state-run Camtel in the administration of the national optic fiber backbone following recent outages.

Camtel said last week that it was observing an uptick in complaints from its main competitors criticising the quality of its network.

The company promises to provide a single, simple payment solution for cross-border online merchants looking at Africa as their next growth opportunity.

The Nigerian Communications Commission set September 14 as the deadline for registering the country's 219 million active mobile customers.

The regulator says it has been mandated to ensure that the telco's network is rehabilitated to improve performance.

The companies wrap up a proof-of-concept to evaluate the capabilities of an Open Radio Access Network solution.

MTN says it is interested in bringing 5G to Cameroon as part of its strategy to ensure that the technology it delivers keep up with the times.

Camtel, MTN Cameroon, Orange Cameroun and Nxttel have all fallen victim.
