Our state of readiness is very high,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s an auction committee for 5G with a deployment plan ready. As you know, without a plan you cannot have a successful deployment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll we are asking is additional spectrum to be allocated by the National Frequency Management Council (NFMC). Of course some of these spectrums are ready but we have to get the Federal Government\u2019s approval to go ahead with the auctions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Danbatta said the commission will launch a book to provide more insight into the workings of NCC under his watch.<\/p>\n<p>He said the commission will continue to deploy its mandate to boost the economy and ensure national development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have spoken about the first Strategic Vision Plan (SVP), comprising 8 agenda items. The SVP has come to the end and we have written a book providing documented progress we have made while implementing it. I am pleased to inform you that the book will be unveiled on 7th September, 2021,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Commission will continue to put in its best in the discharge of its mandate, especially in facilitating the deployment of broadband infrastructure, which is central to diversifying the Nigerian economy and national development.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s our belief also that the communications industry, under the leadership of the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy, will experience more quantum leap and retain its current flagship role in the telecommunication
