This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nigerian telecommunications industry has continued to grow in a phenomenal manner following market liberalization reforms that commenced in the 1990s. As of 2017, the telecommunications industry was one of the fastest-growing economic sectors in Nigeria and the fourth largest contributor to the country’s Gross Domestic Product. The telecommunications industry, however, remains a highly technical and naturally dynamic industry that has not been a usual area for legal research in developing countries such as Nigeria. This book bridges that gap in knowledge by providing an analysis of the legal and policy instruments that regulate the industry. It comprises eleven chapters that discuss the historical evolution of telecommunications and its regulation; the development of the Nigerian telecommunications industry from 1886 to 2017; the legal basis for the regulation of the industry; the licensing and duties of service providers; the regulation of network infrastructure; the protection of consumers; the regulation of competition, interconnection, universal access, and environmental protection; and the resolution of industry disputes. This book will be useful to policy makers, legislators, regulators, lawyers, law students, investors, operators, and consumers, as well as any person interested in the Nigerian telecommunications industry.

Download or read book International Telecommunications Law and Policy written by Uchenna Jerome Orji and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-18 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the revolution in modern telecommunications that followed the invention of the telegraph, telecommunication networks have provided channels for the fast delivery of communications across national borders. This transnational nature of telecommunication networks have led to the establishment of international regulatory regimes on the subject. On the other hand, developing countries consider regional economic integration as a major strategy for promoting trade and development, telecommunications have been seen within this context as a strategic tool for facilitating regional economic integration. This has also led to the establishment of regional telecommunication regulatory regimes that aim to promote regional integration and regulatory harmonization. This book discusses telecommunication regimes established by international and regional organizations such as the United Nations, the International Telecommunication Union, the World Trade Organization, the African Union, the Economic Community of West African States, and the Southern African Development Community, among a number of others. It will be relevant to policy makers, regulators, lawyers, law students, investors and telecommunication operators, as well as any person interested in international and African regional telecommunication regimes.

Download or read book Regulating Anti competitive Practices in Nigeria s Communications Sector written by Chukwuyere Ebere Izuogu and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering book gives a comprehensive review of the work of the Nigerian Communications Commission in regulating anti-competitive practices in Nigeria's communications market. To that end, the book, among other things, discusses the concept of a substantial lessening of competition, which is the substantive standard used for evaluating anti-competitive conducts in Nigeria's communications sector, and the substantive application of this standard by the Commission in the areas of anti-competitive agreements and practices: abuse of a dominant position; and mergers, acquisitions, and takeovers. The book also discusses the various conducts deemed by the Commission to result in a substantial lessening of competition, and the approach adopted by the Commission in regulating communications Licensees with market power and/or in conducting a dominance determination for the purpose of imposing ex ante regulatory obligations. It is intended that this book will serve as a useful research guide for competition and communications law practitioners in Nigeria, and especially officials of the Commission investigating anti-competitive practices. Academics, economists and law students with an interest in the competition regulation of communications services in Nigeria will also find this book useful. [Subject: African Law, Competition Law]

Book excerpt: The internet has transformed the world as we know it. It has permeated virtually all aspect of human actions. It has made it easier to communicate, network, share contents and close transactions globally. The legal system is not left out, as the law must now take into consideration online activities which have real-world consequences. The Nigerian Internet Law is a ground-breaking work, exploring what is mostly uncharted territory in the Nigerian legal system. It provides a legal perspective on internet activities based on laws, regulations, judicial decisions, and global development.This book considers the history of the internet, its usage and penetration in Nigeria. It examines internet-related issues such as; cyberattacks, fraud, bullying, stalking, squatting, racism, terrorism, electronic signature, identity theft, data protection, net neutrality, and social media. It contains a comprehensive discussion on civil and criminal liabilities for online activities.Besides, it captures the role of key government personnel and agencies such as; the Attorney General of the Federation, Office of the National Security Adviser, Central Bank of Nigeria, National Information Technology Development Agency, and Nigerian Communications Commission in ensuring cybersecurity.This book elaborates on intellectual property viz-a-viz the protection of internet and software elements. For investors, it provides a guide to investing in eCommerce, FinTech and internet services in Nigeria.REVIEWSThis is a very important project. The book should be a very valuable resource for lawyers, policymakers, internet investors and entrepreneurs - Professor James Dempsey, Executive Director, Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, UC Berkeley School of Law. There is something in this book for everyone. It is well written, detailed, easy to understand, adequately organised, and immensely practical. I congratulate Akinkunmi on this giant stride - Adédèjì Ọlọ́wẹ̀, CEO, Trium Networks LimitedThe Nigerian Internet Law couldn't have been written at a better time. At a time where the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is aggressively prosecuting several internet scams perpetrated by Nigerians including Business Email Compromise (BEC) and romance scams, it is of great benefit to have a Nigerian legal resource that can be referenced. The book sheds light on Nigeria's position on cybercrimes, and an opportunity to question if our laws regulating internet scams are sufficient, or what we need is a more diligent prosecution and execution of the extant laws to address the rise in internet scams. Akinkunmi has written the book needed for the times we live in - Odunoluwa Longe, Co-founder, The Longe Practice. In Nigeria, addressing legal and practical issues in a largely uncharted, fastchanging and complicated subject as Internet law could be overwhelming. Hence, this outstanding effort by Akinkunmi Akinwunmi is a timely step in the right direction, bringing clarity to Nigeria's Internet law. I am glad that Akinkunmi has written this book, drawing on his vast knowledge and diverse experience. For many, I have no doubt that reading this book will be a great resource in understanding the rudiments of Internet Law in Nigeria and in proffering solutions to the many attendant challenges - Rotimi Ogunyemi, 1st Vice - Chairman, Nigerian Bar Association - Section on Business Law ICT Committee. In my opinion, this book is readily the most authoritative and instructive resource on internet law in Nigeria. It displays a powerful combination of the thoughtfulness, clarity, and scholarship in discussing the complexities of internet law. I am absolutely excited about the monumental contribution this book will make to legal education and the body of knowledge in Nigeria. This invaluable resource should have a place of honour in every library - Dayo Ogunyemi, Fellow, Canadian Institute of Resources Law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite concerns linked to short-term and cyclical risks, including unequal development, policy uncertainty, declining oil prices and localised unrest, the longer-term growth fundamentals are clear. Following the presidential elections in March 2015, the newly elected government of President Muhammadu Buhari will face a host of challenges, ranging from high levels of rural poverty to concerns over governance and an insurgency in the north. The outcome of the presidential elections gave Nigeria its first peaceful handover of power in more than 16 years, as well as a boost of momentum that, along with its economic fundamentals, places it on the cusp of potentially long-term, broad-based growth.
