The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has officially published the final version of the Information Memorandum (IM) for the upcoming auction of the remaining lots in the 3.5 gigahertz (GHz) spectrum, aimed at facilitating the deployment of Fifth Generation (5G) services in Nigeria.
Earlier in the process, the Commission released a draft IM and invited stakeholders to provide feedback to enhance the document. Following this, a Stakeholder Engagement forum was held on November 15, 2022, at the Marriott Hotel in Ikeja, Lagos, where the comments from various stakeholders were discussed and incorporated into the final version.
The updated IM, now available on the Commission’s website, outlines the guidelines for the auction process and details the terms of the spectrum allocation. Stakeholders are encouraged to visit the NCC website (www.ncc.gov.ng) and review the final version of the IM through the following link: Final IM for 3.5GHz Spectrum Auction.
In addition, the NCC urges all interested parties to stay updated by checking public notices in local dailies, ensuring that all relevant information is reviewed ahead of the auction.
