In a recent development, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has revealed that Starlink, the satellite internet service provider, did not obtain the necessary approval before increasing its subscription tariffs. This information was disclosed in an official statement issued on October 8, 2024, by Reuben Muoka, the Director of Public Affairs at the NCC.
The statement expressed the NCC’s surprise at Starlink’s decision to announce price changes while a request for tariff adjustment was still under review.
According to the statement,”The decision by Starlink to unilaterally review their subscription packages upwards, did not receive the approval of the Nigerian Communications Commission.
“The action of the company is in contravention of Sections 108 and 111 of the Nigerian Communications Act, 2003, and Starlink’s License Conditions regarding tariffs.
“The Commission commenced pre-enforcement action on the licensee on the 3rd of October, 2024.
