Information and communications technology and security experts have said that the deployment of 5G technology will not necessarily resolve national problems, especially the issue of insecurity in Nigeria.
The Federal Government recently revealed plans to deploy 5G technology, a move which was strengthened last week Wednesday when the Nigerian Communications Commission and the Nigerian Communications Satellite Limited signed a Memorandum of Understanding for the usage of C-Band spectrum on Nigerian communications satellite for 5G services.
