    The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has dismissed claims that it has a member representing the Commission on the newly constituted board at Etisalat Nigeria.

    The Director of Public Affairs, NCC, Mr Tony Ojobo said this in a statement on Saturday in Lagos.

    Ojobo said that the attention of the commission had been drawn to a report by some media organisations to the effect that NCC was represented on the new Board of Etisalat.

    “The commission hereby makes it clear that it is not on the Board of Etisalat.

    “As the regulator of the telecommunications sector, there was a recommendation suggesting that NCC should be on the new board of the company but the commission declined.

    “The NCC considered it necessary to bring this to the attention of the general public,” he said.

    The telecommunications company said that Olusanya was replacing Mr Matthew Wilshere, who stepped down as the CEO on Monday, July 3.

    It also said that Mrs Funke Ighodaro had been appointed as the Chief Finance Officer, to take over from Mr Olawole Obasunloye, who also resigned on July 3.
