Starcomms Plc., Nigeria’s highly innovative telecommunications company reaffirmed its leadership in its area of operations at the weekend, having been voted by the Nigerian public as the CDMA company of the year in the well attended Top Celebrities Achievers Award.
At the award ceremony, which rallied who-is-who in the various sectors of the Nigerian economy, the chief executive officer of Starcomms, Maher Qubain was also named the Telecommunications Personality of the year.
According to the organizers of the event, Starcomms Plc has proved to the world that the best can come out of Nigeria. Starcomms, the first Nigerian telecommunication company to be quoted on the Nigerian stock exchange has been achieving many feats in the country and has been taking many bold steps as a CDMA company in recent times.
One major achievement of the company mentioned, is its recent offering of roaming services to its customers so that wherever they go in the world they can be reached on their Starcomms mobile phones. This service, which used to be offered all over the world only by GSM companies makes Starcomms the first CDMA company in the world to offer inter-standard roaming facility.
The huge investments of Starcomms in the Internet Protocol Contact Centre, was also taken note of by the award organizers. The IPCC allows easy interactions between Starcomms and its customers in five languages and helps customers to pull through any challenge that they may have with their phones.
Starcomms was also praised for being the first CDMA company to latch on to Main One Cable, the new undersea optic fiber cable, linking Nigeria and the rest of West Africa to Europe. This will enable the company to maintain its leadership in the provision of internet access in the country.
The company’s managing director, Maher Qubain was lauded for his dexterity at striking a balance among the growth of the company, the interest of the shareholders and pleasing the customers.
“Qubain has sustained the business of Starcomms in situations where many CDMA companies were floundering. The company under Qubain continues to grow in subscriber base in the face of all business challenges,” noted the award organizers.
In a response to this recognition, the CEO of Starcomms, Maher Qubain expressed his appreciation to the organizers of the awards, noting that his achievements and those of Starcomms are not without the unwavering supports of the customers and staff of the company.
