The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has earned national recognition once again, emerging as one of the top three Federal Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) with the best-performing websites for 2025, according to the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR).
This latest feat comes just weeks after the telecom regulator was also named among the top five best-performing federal agencies by the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council (PEBEC), reinforcing the NCC’s track record of leveraging technology to drive efficiency, transparency and improved service delivery.
In the 2024/2025 BPSR website performance ranking, which assessed 235 MDAs across the country, the NCC placed second overall. Galaxy Backbone Limited topped the list, while the Nigeria Export Promotion Council (NEPC) secured the third position.
The assessment was conducted using 14 comprehensive performance indicators, including compliance with the official .gov.ng domain, website design and aesthetics, relevance of content to institutional mandates and government policies, structural integrity, responsiveness across devices, security standards, loading speed, ease of navigation, uptime, functionality, interactivity, accessibility and capacity-building features.
The results were officially unveiled at the Federal Government 2024/2025 MDA Website Scorecard presentation held at the Federal Ministry of Finance Auditorium in Abuja on Monday, December 22, 2025. The formal award presentation followed the next day at the BPSR headquarters.
The award serves as a key benchmark under the National e-Government Masterplan, used to measure Nigeria’s e-Government progress. It recognizes the NCC’s commitment to maintaining a world-class digital platform that enables seamless access to information and services for citizens and stakeholders.
Receiving the award on behalf of the Executive Vice Chairman of the NCC, Dr. Aminu Maida, the Executive Commissioner for Technical Services, Abraham Oshadami, described the honour as a strong motivation for the Commission to further enhance its digital presence in line with the Federal Government’s Ease of Doing Business agenda.
Presenting the award, the Director-General of BPSR, Mr. Dasuki Arabi, commended the NCC and the other top-performing agencies for their proactive approach to digital governance. He noted that the annual website scorecard reflects the growing commitment of public institutions to transparency, accountability and global best practices in service delivery.
Arabi added that the initiative, introduced about six years ago, has encouraged more MDAs to embrace reform and align with the Renewed Hope agenda of the current administration, led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He emphasized that in today’s post-pandemic environment, effective governance increasingly depends on the strategic use of technology to deliver efficient, secure and citizen-focused services.
He further explained that the scorecard exercise is part of BPSR’s broader reform mandate to promote best practices across the public service, improve access to government information, facilitate secure transactions, reduce corruption and cyber risks, and expand access to government services through digital platforms.
