Comms Minister, Maida Advance Nigeria’s Vision on Digital Capacity in Partnership with Nokia

Recently, Dr. Bosun Tijanni, the Honourable Minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, led the Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Dr. Aminu Maida, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Nokia Solutions and Networks Nigeria to train young Nigerians on latest 4G/ 5G radio and transmission technologies at the Nigerian Communications Commission’s Digital Parks.

Nokia Nigeria would be setting up a fully functional 5G/4G test lab, leveraging their latest radio and transmission technologies.
