There is a way a little sense of history tries to educate and equip us with the capacity to withstand the present and shape the future.

History tells us a little bit of who we are and the things that shape our being. History is stubborn. It paints the bad leader with deserved odious colours and reserves a good place for the deserving. In whatever realm, the appropriateness of history is unquestionable.

When the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), from May 20, 2026, organised a two-day stakeholders meeting for the review of the National Telecommunications Policy (NTP) 2000, Engr Titi Omo-Ettu came, arming himself with history to demonstrate how looking at the past can equip us to manage our expectations and be able to create a tech future that positions us strongly in the comity of nations.
