In a bid to improve women in leadership positions within the telecommunications industry, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has commenced a programme aimed at building a sustainable platform for women in the industry.

Speaking on the maiden edition, the NCC Executive Vice-Chairman (EVC), Dr. Aminu Maida, said the programme would help to shape the younger women in the industry.

“This event is a gathering to help share experiences and encourage them to aspire and reach the top of their career.

“We have a lot of strong women. I see a lot of promise in the next generation of women in the commission,” he said.
