The Nigerian Communications Commission is set to convene a Stakeholder Consultative Forum on Thursday, July 16, 2026, to review and refine the draft business rules governing Mobile Virtual Network Operators in Nigeria.
The forum, scheduled for 10 a.m. at the NCC Annex Office in Mbora, Abuja, will bring together industry stakeholders to give input on the regulatory framework before it is finalised.
The Commission announced the MVNO Business Rules event on its official social media platforms, inviting telecom operators, industry associations and other interested parties to participate in shaping the rules that will govern MVNO operations in the country.
MVNOs, companies that offer mobile services by leasing network capacity from licensed mobile network operators rather than owning spectrum or infrastructure, have been a subject of regulatory interest in Nigeria as the NCC works to diversify the telecoms market and expand consumer choice.
Further details on the outcome of the consultation are expected once the forum concludes.
