NCC attends Argungu festival, carries out consumer education
The Nigerian Communications Commission has leveraged its presence as a collaborating partner at this year’s Argungu International Fishing and Culture Festival to undertake a robust education of telecoms consumers attending the event about their rights, privileges as well as their obligations as critical stakeholders in the telecommunications industry.
The festival, thus, offers the NCC the opportunity to interact with a large number of telecom consumers attending the festival to educate them on their rights and privileges as telecoms consumers, and also to enlighten them on various consumer-centric actions and policies of the NCC. The NCC seized the opportunity of the symposium to educate and sensitise participants on the procedures for reporting and resolving telecom services-related challenges. Importantly, telecom consumers were informed that the process begins with filing a complaint to service providers.
The Commission also sensitised participants on the availability of 112 toll-free number which telecom consumers and other citizens can dial in emergency situations, in order to access help from emergency response agencies through the Emergency Communication Centres . Eighteen of the ECCs has so far been built by the NCC in different states.
