He said: “Access gap above 207 was down to about 196 through an established agency under the NCC, that is why the numbers of Nigerians without access to telecommunications services have reduced from 40 million to about 33 million presently.’’
He further disclosed that the commission is considering deploying rural technology solutions that would bridge the gap.
He said that the partnership between the NCC and the ACCA will professionally enhance the knowledge of staffs of the NCC particularly in aspect of financial services.
