Opinion: Lessons from Rwanda and the Lingering Divide in Nigeria

Author admin 0 108

By Dr. Joseph Ogundu

Rwanda’s journey from the ashes of civil war to a thriving, unified nation is nothing short of remarkable. When the brutal conflict ended, the country’s leaders made a conscious decision to abandon ethnic identities and embrace national consciousness. They prioritized unity and cohesion, ensuring that ethnic differences took a back seat to the greater goal of building a progressive, harmonious nation.

Nigeria’s telecommunications industry is undergoing a significant transformation as the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) licenses 43 Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). These operators, unlike Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) such as MTN or Glo, utilize existing infrastructure to provide specialized and often more affordable services tailored to consumer needs.
