Kindly share this postNigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has removed over 450 illegal signal boosters deployed in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The NCC said its enforcement teams removed the illegal signal boosters across the FCT, noting that the devices degrade network quality in surrounding areas.
Engagements are ongoing with the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) to prevent further importation of the devices,” the NCC stated.
The NCC said, in collaboration with a joint industry committee, it continued to implement the Smarter Data Management Consumer Awareness Campaign.
The NCC informed that to further strengthen spectrum optimisation, service quality, and long-term network planning, the Commission has developed Nigeria’s first structured Spectrum Roadmap for the communications sector.
