| We
are now merging NCC and NBC, God knows why? Is it because
of frequency? We already have a frequency board so why do
you want to force those two together when they have very distinct
jobs. We are bringing together Science and ICT. ICT is information
communication technology while Science is a very broad subject;
the whole thing is politics, they are just playing politics

The
progress of the telecom industry in the last seven years is
largely as a result of the liberalized market, but even in
a liberalized environment, government still has a vital role
to play in growing the nation's telecommunications infrastructure
and ensuring a competitive environment that will reduce prices
and make services more affordable

With
the right institutional framework in place and the support
of Nigerians, telecom penetration in Nigeria will continue
to confound experts who once thought telephones are not
for the poor and those who thought it was foolhardy to invest
in Nigeria

Distribution (TD) has put in place, readily recognizable
attributes that would have no viable alternatives in the
market place. This major feat dictates that TD must have
distinctive features that deliver extra value to our customers,
shareholders and staff

The
computer is still much, more expensive than the television
which is available in almost every home. So until we are
able to bill the cost of the computer at par with the cost
of the television, I am afraid not every home will be able
to afford them

| There
is nothing to stop the operators co-locating together. There
is no law that says you are not allowed to co-locate. The
only possible drawback of co-location is if the operators
utilize inexperienced and/or financially incapable entities
to do it
