NCC’s ICT compliance initiative

South East Bureau Chief, Jude Ossai, writes on the efforts of the Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC) to make Nigerians compliant with Information and Communications Technology (ICT).THERE is no gainsaying the fact that enhancement of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) capacity of most Nigerians is a challenge confronting the nation’s communications sector. The reality is that many Nigerians, including the lettered ones, are still far from being computer literate. However, the Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Chief Ernest Ndukwe, has achieved feats through his telecommunication revolution specifically between February 2000 and December 2007 when the nation’s subscriber base grew from 0.4 million to 42 million. The dominance of ICT-induced activities in the international community, which has become a global trend, will render every educated person and professional that are not ICT compliant illiterate.Ndukwe had no better f...
