NCC and CBN officials sign agreement to combat fraud in Nigeria

The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen consumer protection and combat fraud in Nigeria’s digital economy.

The agreement, announced on April 20, 2026, also led to the inauguration of two joint committees focused on payment systems oversight and telecom-related identity risk management.

Officials say the partnership reflects growing interdependence between telecom and financial services in Nigeria.

Why it matters

With millions of Nigerians relying on mobile phones for banking and digital transactions, fraud linked to phone numbers has become a major concern.

Regulators say closer coordination is necessary to ensure trust, stability, and security across both sectors.

How the system will work

A key feature of the collaboration is the Telecom Identity Risk Management System (TIRMS) portal.

The platform will provide financial institutions with real-time visibility into the status of phone numbers.

“This means that the Financial Institutions will be able to determine when a line is active, when it has been swapped, when it has been disconnected due to inactivity and reassigned to a new subscriber, and when it has been flagged for suspicious or fraudulent activity,” the NCC said.

The system is expected to improve fraud detection, especially for scams involving recycled or compromised phone numbers.

Consumer protection in focus

The NCC said the agreement prioritises faster resolution of consumer complaints across telecom and banking services.

“Consumers who experience issues such as airtime recharges that do not deliver value can be assured of prompt resolution within the shortest possible time,” the Commission stated.

Officials added that the framework would enable coordinated policy responses and proactive action as new risks emerge.

“A milestone for Nigeria’s digital economy”

The Executive Vice Chairman of the NCC, Aminu Maida, described the agreement as a major step forward.

“The MoU provides a structured framework for cooperation in critical areas including payment system integrity, fraud mitigation, digital inclusion, and the protection of consumers,” he said.

“It will translate into practical outcomes that strengthen trust, deepen inclusion, and support a secure and resilient digital economy.”

He added that the initiative aligns with the NCC’s broader strategy to build a safe and inclusive digital ecosystem.

Building on past collaboration

Dr Maida said the partnership builds on previous joint efforts between both regulators.

“A notable and recent example is our collective effort in resolving the long-standing USSD debt impasse—an intervention that restored confidence, preserved service continuity, and safeguarded the interests of consumers.”

CBN: Stronger system, safer economy

The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Olayemi Cardoso, said the MoU would enhance coordination in regulatory approvals and innovation.

He noted that it would also support sandbox testing—allowing new financial technologies to be tested safely.

“Going forward, the Central Bank of Nigeria remains fully committed to working with the Nigerian Communications Commission to deliver a safer, more resilient, and more inclusive digital financial system—one that supports national productivity, protects consumers, and strengthens trust in Nigeria’s digital economy.”

Mr Cardoso also inaugurated the joint committees, stating they would place consumer protection at the centre of regulatory action.

Industry perspective

Industry analysts say the integration of telecom data into financial systems could significantly reduce fraud risks.

Fintech operators also expect improved regulatory clarity, which may encourage innovation while maintaining safeguards.

For consumers, the impact could include safer transactions, fewer failed services, and quicker dispute resolution.

What’s next

The effectiveness of the initiative will depend on how well both regulators implement the framework and enforce compliance.

Observers will be watching for measurable outcomes, including reduced fraud cases and improved confidence in digital services.
