The Minister also challenged Bindawa to cooperate with other board members for effective regulatory operations that will benefit the commission’s staff, stakeholders and the Nigerian economy at large.

Pantami also tasked the entire board and management of NCC on the need to re-double their efforts and journey with the ministry and its various agencies to collectively implement various policies of government aimed at developing the telecommunications sector of the Nigerian economy.

In his remarks, Chairman, Governing Board of NCC, Prof. Adeolu Akande, who led Bindawa and other board members of the commission to the minister, expressed appreciation to the Federal Government and the Pantami for “fortifying the commission with intellectuals ready to work together for the advancement of the technological ecosystem.”

“Bindawa is the fourth professor on the board of the NCC and his professional experience and expertise will further strengthen the board.

“The profile of Professor Bindawa has preceded him as a distinguished humanist, and we believe that his presence will be of immense benefit to the commission. We look forward enthusiastically to leveraging the wealth of experience and support Prof. Bindawa is bringing on board in consolidating our achievements,” Akande said.

The NCC chairman asserted that Bindawa’s appointment conforms to the notion that people of diverse experience continue to complement one another in taking the commission to greater heights.

In the same vein, NCC’s Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Prof. Umar Danbatta, thanked the minister for his interest in policy implementation and for preserving the autonomy of the board and management to discharge their functions effectively as a regulatory institution.

Danbatta assured the new board member of a work atmosphere characterised by cordiality and friendship where regulatory issues of national interest are resolved through intellectually-engaging deliberations for the progress of the commission and the nantion.

Responding, Bindawa appreciated the government for the opportunity given to him to serve the nation through the NCC and pledged to deliver on the set mandates of the commission, promising to cooperate with the board and management.

Bindawa’s inauguration by the minister follows his nomination in a letter dated January 10, 2022, by President Muhammadu Buhari, and subsequent confirmation of his nomination by the Senate on March 1, 2022, in line with the provisions of the Nigerian Communications Act (NCA) 2003.
