The executive vice chairman (EVC) of the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Prof. Umar Garba Danbatta was honoured with an Award of Exemplary Leadership in Public Service.

The award was conferred on Danbatta at the 12th Anniversary Lecture and Award of Nigerian NewsDirect, in Lagos.

Danbatta, who was represented at the event by the director, public affairs, NCC, Reuben Muoka, said, it was gratifying to have been considered worthy for the award in recognition of the initiatives deployed by the commission in carrying out its statutory mandate.

Speaking on the theme of the Lecture, the EVC stated that, the theme ‘Good Governance: Private and Public Sectors’ Roles in Raising Revenue, Growth and Positive Turnaround of Nigerian Economy’ provides the veritable opportunity for all stakeholders to seek better ways of advancing the course of good governance both in public office and in the private sector of the Nigerian economy.

In giving concrete expression to the strategic vision of the commission with respect to the theme of the programme, Danbatta said, the commission is ever determined to ensure collaboration with all stakeholders in the Nigerian communications industry and even beyond as it remains one of the surest ways of enabling a positive turnaround of the Nigerian economy.

While presenting the award, the publisher and editor-in-chief of Nigerian NewDirect, Dr Samuel Ibiyemi said, Danbatta was eminently qualified and deserving of the prestigious recognition on the strength of the huge role he has played in the attainment and surpassing of Nigeria’s national broadband target of 30 per cent in 2018 and leading the charge for the realisation of the new national broadband penetration target of 70 per cent by 2025.

Dr Ibiyemi added that, with the incontrovertible facts on the ground, it was easy for the board and management of his organisation to agree that through an effective regulatory regime and various cutting-edge initiatives, Danbatta has stabilised the telecom industry and strengthened the telecommunications sector as a major contributor to the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth and boosted telecoms investment inflows from $36 billion to over $70 billion from 2015 till date.

Other eminent Nigerians who were conferred with various categories of awards at the event include: the minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Prof. Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami; Dapo Abiodun, governor of Ogun State; Bello Hassan, managing director, Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation; and Mimi Adzape, executive chairman, Benue State Internal Revenue Service, among others.
