Nigeria’s leading satellite communication infrastructure provider, NIGCOMSAT Limited, has begun a collaborative partnership with the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria (BON) to provide uplink services on the NIGCOMSAT satellite network.
The strategic alliance aims to improve the quality and reach of broadcasting services for BON members across the country for a period of three months.
This development which aligns with the mandate of the Federal Ministry of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy under the supervision of the Minister, Dr Bosun Tijani, will see NIGCOMSAT leverage its state-of-the-art satellite technology to empower BON and its member organisations. This partnership will enable BON to seamlessly access NIGCOMSAT’s reliable and high-performance uplink services, ensuring their broadcast signals are delivered with unparalleled quality and consistency to viewers nationwide.
According to the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, NIGCOMSAT Ltd, Mrs. Jane Nkechi Egerton-Idehen, “NIGCOMSAT is committed to driving digital transformation and enhancing connectivity across Nigeria.”
“By collaborating with the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria, considering the strong influence it has in the media space and its contributions to the development of the society, we have the opportunity to elevate the country’s broadcasting landscape and bring the benefits of satellite technology to millions of Nigerians who rely on these vital services”, she added.
The collaboration will commence immediately with NIGCOMSAT’s technical team working closely with BON to integrate their systems and ensure a seamless transition. This partnership underscores NIGCOMSAT’s dedication to supporting the growth and development of Nigeria’s media and communications sectors, ultimately empowering citizens with access to reliable and informative content.
