The Federal Government has confirmed plans to increase telecoms tariffs, but assured Nigerians it won’t be by 100% as requested by operators.

The Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy, Bosun Tijan, made this known at a stakeholders’ meeting in Abuja on Wednesday.

He said the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) would come up with modalities for tariff adjustment in the telecoms industry.

The Telcos recently urged the federal government to approve the increase in tariffs, in line with current realities, fueled by the removal of the petrol subsidy and the floating of the naira.
