Ntel to employ 4000 Nigerians ahead of rollout

As former Nigerian Telecommunications Limited
(NITEL), now Ntel, prepares to roll out it services into
the nation’s market, indications are that over 4000
Nigerians will be employed in the organisation.
Speaking when a team from the firm paid a courtesy
call on the Bureau of Public Enterprises, Head,
Government Affairs for Ntel, Mr. Damian Udeh,
confirmed that all labour matters were being managed
appropriately and that till date, all staff of the enterprise
were of Nigerian nationality.
“The company hopes to generate employment for over
4,000 Nigerians over the next five years,” he said.
However, Acting Director General, Bureau of Public
Enterprises (BPE), Dr. Vincent Akpotaire, advised them
to come out with unique products to effectively
compete with the existing networks.
Akpotaire gave the advice when the representatives of
Ntel management led by Mr. Osondu C. Nwokoro,
visited the Bureau to make presentation on the post-
privatisation roll out plan on Tuesday April 5, 2016. He
advised the Consortium to justify their emergence in
the privatization process by deploying the right
technology to turn around the sector.
