In a press statement made available to LEADERSHIP, the executive vice chairman of NCC, Prof Umar Danbatta frowned at the proliferation of counterfeit handsets in the country,

Danbatta said “The menace of counterfeit and substandard handsets has assumed a global dimension and requires a lot of education on the part of the consumers and collaboration with other government agencies to address it.”

 

“Cases of influx and patronage of counterfeit handsets are more rampant in developing countries, such as Nigeria, where importers bring in substandard phones without recourse to the regulatory type-approval process aimed at certifying such devices as fit for the market.”
