The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), attracted industry commendation for its efficient regulatory processes that have given verve to the realisation of full digital economy in the country at the opening of the AfricaNext event which kicked off on Monday in Lagos.
The Chief Executive Officer of CashToken Africa, Mr. Lai Labode, commended the Commission for its deep understanding and support being given to firms that have critical roles to play in actualising the dreams of the digital economy.
Labode, who gave the commendation in his speech at CashToken Africa’s forum at the 2023 AfricaNXT conference with the focus – ‘Socially Smart Business Models: Universal Cash Reward, Direct Sales Gamification and Wealth Redistribution’, projected that the NCC’s sustained support for the techno-businesses would make the desired impact in the future of the country’s Information and Communication Technology (ICT) development.
According to him, the commission’s approach to transform the telecom industry and contribute to the government’s digital economy agenda is reflected in the diligence, speed and smartness in processing recent applications including the CashToken, which have helped in major collaboration with Mobile Network Operators (MNOs).
Other participants also spoke about the demonstration of commitment to efficiency in NCC’s operations and attainment of excellence in regulatory oversight, a key point in its extant 5-point agenda for transforming the telecom sector.
NCC is one of the sponsors and key agencies participating at AfricaNXT event and will take to the stands on Thursday at the FutureNow Stage, with a theme that will focus on its mandates and efforts towards the realization of the digital economy agenda of the Federal Government.
