NCC Says Voice, Data Services Restored After Undersea Cable Cuts

The Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, says voice and data services affected by undersea cable cuts along the Cote d’Ivoire and Senegal coasts have been restored to approximately 90% peak utilisation capacities.

In a statement, the NCC Director of Public Affairs, Mr. Rueben Muoka, said Mobile Network Operators have assured the commission that data and voice services would operate optimally pending full repairs of the undersea cables as they have managed to activate alternative connectivities to bring back the situation to normalcy.

The Commission appreciated telecom consumers for their patience and understanding during the downtime caused by the undersea fibre cuts.

Since Thursday, telecommunications subscribers and bank users have been stranded as a subsea cable cut in the Atlantic Ocean offshore Cote D’Ivoire, along the coast of West Africa paralysed digital transactions and internet communications.
