The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has denied reports claiming that it has renewed the mobile operating license of Airtel Nigeria for another period of 10 years.

The claim was said to have been made by the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Airtel Nigeria, Mr. Olusegun Ogunsanya while speaking last week, during the media launch of the telco’s corporate social responsibility programme, ‘Touching Lives 6’.

The NCC stated on Sunday through its Director Public Affairs, Dr. Ikechukwu Adinde that while Airtel Nigeria has applied for the renewal of the Unified Access Service (UASL) License granted to it by the Commission, the application is yet to be approved as it is still undergoing the required regulatory process.

The Commission said it was making this denial for the guidance of telecom stakeholders.

“The attention of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has been drawn to a recent statement on an online publication credited to the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Airtel Nigeria, Mr. Olusegun Ogunsanya, to the effect that the mobile operating license of Airtel has been renewed by the Commission for another period of 10 years.

“Mr. Ogunsanya was said to have made the statement while speaking in Lagos on Wednesday, July 14, 202, during the media launch of Airtel’s corporate social responsibility programme, ‘Touching Lives 6’.

“The Commission wishes to state that while Airtel Nigeria has applied for the renewal of the Unified Access Service (UASL) Licence granted to it by the Commission, the application is yet to be approved as it is still undergoing the required regulatory process.

“This statement is issued for the guidance of our stakeholders,” the NCC said in the statement.
