MCMC: Allegations of OPCOM being the biggest beneficiary of NFCP is not true
The MCMC which oversees the NFCP has issued a clarification on the allegations made. Firstly, the NFCP is not a mega project and it is a plan that sets out strategies, targets and action items to ensure the availability of a robust, pervasive, high quality and affordable digital connectivity for the country.
MCMC has said that the implementation of the NFCP will be based on two pillars. The first will be a series of infrastructure projects that will be funded through the Universal Service Provision Fund or via commercial means by the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 licensees. The infrastructure projects will be undertaken for a period of 5 years and it will use a variety of technologies which include fibre optics, wireless and satellite. It added that thecost is an estimation and the actual figure may change as the NFCP is further refined from time to time.
The second pillar is all about placing the right policies to facilitate deployment of infrastructure nationwide. This will include policies that remove barriers that hinder faster and effective infrastructure rollout at the state level and to optimise the use of spectrum.
