The code which was made available on the NCC’s website according to the regulatory is to enhance good corporate governance practices in the Nigerian telecommunications industry.
NCC’s Executive Vice Chairman, Dr. Eugene Juwah said the provisions of the code were based on international best practices in line with common knowledge.
He said, “The need to develop a sector specific Corporate Governance Code for the Nigerian Telecommunication Industry is necessary to address the peculiarities of the sector that are not typically dealt with under broadly-aimed codes. This is more so in view of the fact that the telecommunications sector, though, dominated by privately-held companies, is of strategic importance to the economy at a macro level.”
