The Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, has said that Starlink’s recent upward review of its subscription packages was implemented without prior approval from the Commission.
The Director, Public Affairs of NCC, Reuben Muoka, said this in a brief statement on Tuesday.
He said the decision by Starlink to unilaterally review their subscription packages upwards did not receive the approval of the NCC.
The Director also added that the action of the company was in contravention of Sections 108 and 111 of the Nigerian Communications Act, 2003, and Starlink’s License Conditions regarding tariffs.
Mouka said that the Commission commenced pre-enforcement action on the licensee on the 3rd of October, 2024
“The company’s decision to adjust its prices without approval undermines regulatory stability in the telecommunications sector.
“We will take appropriate enforcement measures against any such actions by licensees,” he said.
