I don't want to doubt the sincerity of NCC over the direction for increase in data tariff.
The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has directed the five big telecoms operators in the country to increase their data tariffs from Thursday, December 1, in order to allow small operators and new entrants to acquire market share and operate profitably, Daily Trust has learnt.
An NCC official who confided in Daily Trust Newspaper on Monday said the regulator came up with the new data regime after some new entrants into the market complained that there was no way they could break even if they operated on same data regime with the likes of MTN, Glo, Etisalat and Airtel.
He said NCC yielded to their pressure when last month it notified the operators of the new rate. https://www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/why-we-directed-big-telcos-to-increase-data-tariffs-ncc.227971/
But i have a question; to whose benefit is this decision for? Few persons -stakeholders? Or the masses?
Are our Nigerian leaders in divers tier of government considerate? Are they after the well being of almost impoverished masses, already average Nigerians are really dead in poverty.
Don't get me wrong o, i just want to be purely critical. It could the best decision that NCC is taking. I pray so.
To what decree would the tariff increasing get to? Or is it a gateway to armless robbery nd extortion.
