The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has unveiled a draft regulatory framework to address unutilized and unclaimed recharges in the telecom sector.
In a statement issued by the NCC’s Executive Vice Chairman, Dr. Aminu Maida, the Commission invited stakeholders to review the proposed guidelines, available on its official website (www.ncc.gov.ng).
The move aligns with the NCC’s regulatory mandate under the Nigerian Communications Act 2003, particularly Section 57, which empowers the Commission to implement measures for sector efficiency.
To ensure that the review process is all-inclusive, the commission has scheduled a Virtual Stakeholders Forum for Tuesday, April 8, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. to discuss the draft document.

The commission urged stakeholders to submit written feedback by Friday, April 4, 2025, addressed to the Executive Vice Chairman of the commission and either submit it at the NCC’s headquarters in Abuja or via the Email: stakeholders@ncc.gov.ng
Industry experts believe that this initiative underscores the commission’s commitment to transparency and inclusive policymaking in the telecommunications industry.
