Poor Network: IT Expert Makes Case For Subscribers

The Nigerian Communi
cation Commission (NCC) has been told to ensure that compensation of subscribers receives full attention before the first quarter of this year in order to restore their (subercribers) hope.
The Managing Director of Telecom Training Centre, Mr Goodsuccess Ndamatti, said this Wednesday, in an exclusive interview with The Tide in Port Harcourt.
He said subscribers, were terribly shortchanged last year by telecom operators.
Ndamatti, noted that services were generally poor last year due to what he described as unseriousness by the regulators.
According to him, the NCC, should establish centres at the six geo-political Zones of the country as to enable them get quick access to subscribers.
He noted that subscribers in Nigeria had over the years suffered some degree of injustice in the hands of telecom providers in the country.
He pointed out that the subscribers compensation plan should be properly monitored as to erase all manners of doubt.
The Tide further gathered that most key players in the telecom industry are backing the compensation move in order to straighten the industry.
The president of the National Association of Telecoms subscribers (NATCOMs), Chief Deolu Ogunbanjo, has said that in 2013 and 2014 alone, telecom subscribers lost over N830 billion to poor network service.
