Zoracom recently participated in the Rural Connectivity Summit, a strategic gathering focused on “Rethinking Digital Connectivity to Unlock Rural Economic Potentials.”
Representing Zoracom, CSEO Mr. John Nwachukwu joined the expert panel discussing:
Infrastructure Sharing and Collaborations as Key Pillars of Bridging the Digital Divide
The panel addressed practical pathways toward expanding broadband access to underserved and unconnected communities across Nigeria. Discussions covered market readiness, alignment on performance standards, and the need for stronger collaboration among business, regulators, and technology partners.
When speaking on the commercial and operational challenges limiting infrastructure sharing, Mr. John noted that; Businesses often request high SLAs such as 99.9%, which sometimes may not always be achievable in real deployment conditions. Both connectivity providers and customers lack visibility into actual service performance. This gap often results in conflict around value, pricing, and accountability.
He emphasized that resolving these issues requires:
- A standardized industry benchmark for measurable service quality
- A trusted third-party audit system to validate performance and aid transparent settlements
- Continuous stakeholder engagement in forums like the Summit to drive alignment and shared commitment
Mr. John also spotlighted Zoracom Miro Observability, our intelligent monitoring solution that gives businesses real-time visibility into their network infrastructure. This helps ensure service quality, faster fault resolution, and operational excellence across both urban and rural deployments.
Zoracom remains deeply committed to advancing rural broadband expansion and working with stakeholders to accelerate digital inclusion. We believe every Nigerian community deserves access to knowledge, opportunity, and empowerment enabled by reliable connectivity.
Together, we can bridge the digital divide and unlock economic growth everywhere.
