The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has introduced new Digital Economy and Online Networks (DEON) Regulations that may significantly affect the telecommunications sector in Nigeria, particularly the $500 million value-added services (VAS) industry. These regulations are expected to impose restrictions on airtime credit practices, which could disrupt services for millions of users across the country. Stakeholders in the telecommunications industry are now assessing the broader implications of these regulations on service delivery and market dynamics. The potential consequences of the DEON Regulations raise concerns about the sustainability and growth of the VAS sector in Nigeria.
