The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive, Dr Aminu Maida, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Nokia Solutions and Networks Nigeria earlier this week to train young Nigerians on the newest 4G/ 5G radio and transmission technologies at the NCC’s Digital Parks. The signing was conducted under the direction of the Honourable Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy, Dr. Bosun Tijanni.
Nokia Nigeria would be setting up a fully functional 5G/4G test lab, leveraging their latest radio and transmission technologies.
NCC claims that this partnership advances the goal of enhancing Nigerians’ capacity and skill set by providing them with the modern information and abilities required to adjust to the quickly changing telecoms sector.
In tune with the Ministry of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy’s goal to drive digital literacy and build a pipeline of technical talents across Nigeria, Nokia Nigeria would also set up an Entrepreneur Learning Programme where it would deliver high-quality vocational training to 200 Nigerian students chosen from across the six geo-political zones of Nigeria.
