Distinguished gentlemen of the Press 

Invited Guests 

Ladies and gentlemen, 

Good morning, and thank you for joining us today.

We appreciate your presence at this briefing, particularly as partners who play a critical role in informing the public and shaping understanding of developments in Nigeria’s telecommunications sector. Your engagement is important to us, and we do not take it for granted.

At the Nigerian Communications Commission, transparency for us has become a guiding principle that underpins our regulatory approach. 

We believe that open access to information strengthens the industry, builds public trust, and reinforces accountability among operators. It is for this reason that the Commission continues to proactively share data and insights on industry performance, not only to support informed decision-making, but also to ensure that service providers remain accountable to consumers.

Last year, the Commission deepened this commitment by partnering with Ookla to develop nationwide Network Coverage Maps. These maps provide consumers with an objective tool to compare network quality across locations and operators. As part of this same partnership, we commenced the publication of Quarterly Network Performance Reports, designed to offer consistent, data-driven insights into how networks are performing across the country.

The first of these reports—the Q3 2025 Network Performance Report—was published in October last year. Today, we are pleased to formally present the Q4 2025 Network Performance Report and to engage with you on its findings.

The objective of this interaction is straightforward: to share key insights from the report, highlight how the industry is performing, and provide clarity on trends that matter to both consumers and stakeholders. As you will see from the presentations this morning, our collective efforts are beginning to yield positive results. We are observing measurable improvements in network performance and, importantly, in the Quality of Experience delivered to consumers.

We regard the media as strategic partners in this journey. It is important that stories of progress, accountability, and reform are accurately told and widely understood. As you listen today, we encourage you to engage critically, take note of the data presented, and help amplify these stories to the public. We welcome your questions, insights, and recommendations.

Once again, thank you for your continued partnership and for being part of this important conversation.
