President Bola Tinubu has approved the constitution of the boards of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) and the Universal Service Provision Fund (USPF), both operating under the Ministry of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy.

The announcement was made on Tuesday in a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.

Idris Olorunnimbe will serve as Chairman of the NCC board, while Dr. Aminu Wada retains his role as Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, a position he assumed in October 2023 and for which he was confirmed by the Senate the following month.

Olorunnimbe, who previously served on the Lagos State Employment Trust Fund Board as Chairman of its Stakeholder and Governance Committee, will be joined on the NCC board by Abraham Oshidami (Executive Commissioner, Technical Services), Rimini Makama (Executive Commissioner, Stakeholder Management), Hajia Maryam Bayi, Col. Abdulwahab Lawal (rtd.), Senator Lekan Mustafa, Chris Okorie, Princess Oforitsenere Emiko, and the board secretary.

For the USPF, President Tinubu approved a board chaired by the Minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, Dr. Bosun Tijani, with Olorunnimbe as Vice Chairman.

Other members include Oshidami, Makama, Aliyu Edogi Aliyu (representative of FMCIDE), Joseph B. Faluyi (representative of the Federal Ministry of Finance), Auwal Mohammed (representative of FMBNP), Uzoma Dozie, Peter Bankole, Abayomi Anthony Okanlawon, Gafar Oluwasegun Quadri, and the USPF secretary.

The Presidency noted that the USPF was established by the Federal Government to advance national policy objectives for universal access and service to information and communication technologies, particularly in rural, unserved, and underserved communities.
