Nigerian telecommunications companies have proposed a significant tariff hike of 100% across the board, pending approval from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC). The proposed increase would significantly impact consumers, who may face substantial rises in their monthly bills. The NCC has yet to provide its nod for the proposal, which is expected to be scrutinized closely by regulatory bodies and consumer advocacy groups.
