The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) plans to block mobile phones on local networks that have not received regulatory type approval, sending warnings to users of popular brands and preparing a registration process for phones bought abroad or privately.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Telecom & Connectivity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face new government rules that will disconnect unapproved phones from Nigerian networks within 30 days. Start guiding customers through device registration now or risk losing them if their phones get blocked.
