NCC Senior Manager of Regulatory Services, Mrs. Yetunde Adeyemo, disclosed this recently in Lagos, that a the commission noted Nigeria had gathered large amounts of personal information through banking, telecommunications and other government programmes, but poor coordination among databases had reduced its usefulness.

According to her, data collection would have limited impact without proper systems to help relevant institutions access and apply the information efficiently.

Adeyemo urged government agencies, ministries, banks and the media to work together and promote understanding of how integrated data systems could improve public services.

She said stakeholders must take responsibility for ensuring that existing information produces practical benefits, adding, “Let’s start with being accountable, holding ourselves responsible, and using what we have to get the results we need.”
