The NCC was celebrated for its “commitment to openness, accountability and operational excellence in Public Service Delivery.”
The top five agencies recognized in the category were, Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (Overall best-performing agency), National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), Nigeria Customs Service, and Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA).
Receiving the award on behalf of the Commission, the Executive Vice Chairman/CEO of the NCC, Dr. Aminu Maida, reaffirmed the NCC’s commitment to sustaining transparency and accountability.
“The Commission is proud to be listed among the Top Five Best-Performing Federal Government Agencies for 2025. This recognition is an affirmation of the values that guide our work: transparency, accountability, and an unwavering commitment to regulatory excellence... It signals that the reforms we have pursued, the systems we have strengthened, and the decisions we have taken are yielding the right results.
“As an economic regulator, our mandate is to create an environment where operators can thrive—an environment that attracts investment and sustains healthy competition, ensuring consumers enjoy the best possible choices.
“Nigerians can rest assured that we will not rest on our oars. We remain fully committed to ensuring that the telecom consumer receives the highest quality of service, supported by a fair, transparent, and competitive industry.”
Zahrah Mustapha-Audu, the PEBEC Director-General, stated that the event honors champions who have "moved beyond compliance, embracing excellence as the new standard for public service delivery."
She emphasized that the achievements are the tangible result of a collective resolve to make Nigeria the most attractive and predictable competitive destination for business in Africa.
