The news just went viral last week that the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, was planning to shut down Blackberry services. Although the NCC almost immediately denied the rumour, Blackberry users in the country are still nursing fears that their cherished service may go under the knife of the regulator. Most of them still insist that there is no smoke without fire.
Majority of them who expressed their opinions through pinging messages said that although the ban happened in Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates, there is no ground for its success in Nigeria.
Miss Morayo Adebayo - a student: Why would anybody ever thought of it! Banning Blackberry? Its not reasonable in anyway. But I know the way things go in Nigeria, there is no smoke without fire but the truth is that the device has done a lot of good than harm.

The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) is set to launch the Mobile Number Portability (MNP) to stimulate competition and ensure better service delivery among service providers.
Eugene Juwah, the NCC Executive Vice-Chairman, disclosed this in Ibadan at the 72nd Telecoms Consumer Parliament held on Thursday at the Jogor Centre.
Mr. Juwah, who was represented by Sylvanus Ehikioya, the Director of New Media, said the MNP would give consumers the option of changing their network at will while retaining their mobile numbers.
