    NCC's Boss

    Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has taken a major step toward revolutionizing healthcare in Nigeria with the commissioning of an e-Health project at the State Specialist Hospital in Akure, Ondo State.

    Speaking at the event on Thursday, the Executive Vice Chairman of the NCC, Dr. Aminu Maida, highlighted the Commission’s commitment to leveraging Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to enhance medical services across the country.

    Dr. Maida emphasized that integrating advanced ICT solutions into healthcare would improve accessibility, streamline medical processes, and enhance patient care. He stressed that the initiative aligns with the NCC’s broader drive to deepen Nigeria’s participation in the digital economy.

    “With the successful takeoff of this project, we anticipate a significant boost in the adoption of e-health solutions nationwide,” Maida said. “By equipping healthcare facilities with innovative technology, we are ensuring timely and accurate diagnoses, treatment plans, and follow-up care, ultimately leading to better patient satisfaction and improved health outcomes.”

    He praised stakeholders, including technology experts and government officials, for their contributions to the project, noting that their collaboration helped create a model that could be replicated across different regions.

    The e-Health initiative is expected to set a precedent for similar projects nationwide, ensuring that modern healthcare solutions reach all citizens, regardless of their location.

    With the commissioning, the NCC reaffirms its commitment to fostering innovation, supporting digital integration, and driving national development through ICT-enabled solutions.
