| Nigeria's govt presents new broadband-related policy |
|
Nigeria's government has approved a policy that seeks to speed up broadband rollout and balance the costs incurred by telcos looking to secure right of way for fibre optic cable infrastructure. Following a recent National Economic Council (NEC) meeting, Nigeria's communication minister Adebayo Shittu said, "Just like the telecommunication masts which were harmonised after long years of defacing the environment, the government wants to do the same for the laying of fibre optic cables which is becoming a burden on the Nigerian roads."
