(Nigeria) FG-instigated, NCC-directed data tariff increase as from December 1: further pummelling for an already battered citizenry

One wonders what sort of regulation this is! As people have note, NCC is supposed to act in the interest of citizens and ensure healthy competition among telecom operators, not kill competition

Outsiders are interested in supporting tech development and entrepreneurship in the country while the government is coming up with antagonistic policies

The internet somehow keeps the youth engaged. NCC should carry out an intelligent regulatory function, not this type that calls the competence of the body to question

It is no longer news that come December 1 this year, there is going to be a steep increase in data tariff by the big mobile telecommunication networks in Nigeria.

From news making the rounds on the media, the regulatory body for telecom operations in Nigeria, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), at the behest of the Federal Government has mandated telecom service providers to increase data tariff and adopt a uniform price structure.

One wonders what sort of regulation this is! As people have note, NCC is supposed to act in the interest of citizens and ensure healthy competition among telecom operators, not kill competition. 

Trump trumped Clinton to clinch the US presidency

This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men. (Daniel 4.17)

Politically inexperienced and socially crude Trump trumped Clinton, the suave political heavyweight to clinch the world's number one citizen title. Congratulations Mr Trump, President-elect of the US. Despite your notorious past, I believe there is a divine purpose for your emergence as the victor and my prayer is that God will use you to His glory. May you not democratise evil, deny the godly heritage of America and desecrate sacred human and family values like the outgoing administration.
