The Nigerian Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Pantami, directors of telecommunications and technology companies as well as ministers in other countries have agreed to increase th

eir investments in digital infrastructure.

They said the terrible experience of the COVID-19 pandemic offered great opportunities for the ICT community to come together and accelerate digital transformation on an unprecedented scale. “We simply cannot continue to do business as before. Let us seize this opportunity to accelerate progress towards connecting all of humanity. Let us work across borders and sectors to build back better together,” he said.

The minister stated that digital technology had sustained government services and operations throughout the crisis with increased efficiency and savings in cost and time.

She noted that the pandemic threw the inequalities of the digital divide into sharp focus, with remote and rural areas facing a real threat to life through lack of connectivity and information. The Founder and Chairman, Bharti Enterprises, Sunil Bharti Mittal, said governments and regulators must provide the right support in terms of taxation policies, spectrum allocation and rights of way if they expected the industry to deliver on its promise as the provider of an essential service.
