The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has confirmed that there has been improvement in the network performance by service providers.
Presenting the Q4 2025 Network Performance Report to media partners in Abuja, the Executive Commissioner, Technical Services in NCC, Engineer Abraham Oshadami said: “We are observing measurable improvements in network performance and, importantly, in the Quality of Experience delivered to consumers.”
He said that the report is one of the measures to bring out transparency that has become a guiding principle that underpins NCC’s 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.”
Engineer Abraham recalled that last year, the Commission deepened its 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.”
The Executive Commissioner said that the objective of this interaction is 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.
He announced that the collective efforts of the Commission and media are beginning to yield positive results.
“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.”
