During the Nigerian Telecommunications Indigenous Content Expo (NTICE 2023) held in Lagos and organized by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Engineer Gbenga Adebayo, Chairman of ALTON, highlighted that the industry’s difficulties are exacerbated by regulatory interventions.
It’s worth noting that ALTON had previously requested a 40% increase in call, SMS, and data costs from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) last year.
“The present pricing structure in the industry is unsustainable.
“Our services are essentially being offered at a loss.
“While this is a challenging decision, allowing market forces to dictate pricing seems essential,” Adebayo commented.
