NCC to create sustainable A2P for stakeholders’ protection – Maida
The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has disclosed that it will create a sustainable and thriving Application-to-Person (A2P) messaging ecosystem that will protect consumers, promote fair competition, and unlock new growth opportunities.
NCC Executive Vice Chairman/CEO, Dr Aminu Maida, made the disclosure in his welcome address at the Virtual Stakeholders’ Forum on the Draft A2P Licensing Framework held in Abuja on Friday.
The welcome address of the NCC EVC/CEO was delivered at the event by the Ag. Head, Legal and Regulatory Services of NCC, Mrs. Chizua Whyte.
Maida described the gathering as an important forum to deliberate on a critical segment of the telecom ecosystem that affects businesses, consumers, and service providers alike.
According to the NCC boss, A2P messaging plays a vital role in today’s digital world. “It has become the go-to platform for businesses to send notifications, whether transactional, promotional, or service-related, directly to consumers.
“From bank alerts and healthcare reminders to promotional campaigns and government updates, A2P messaging drives efficiency, enhances communication, and supports our socio-economic development,” he said.
