Abuja, May 2020: In support of the Federal Government and Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) fight against corona virus (COVID-19), leading independent fiber optic network infrastructure and telecommunications services provider – Phase3 Telecom, has deployed free fibre broadband connectivity to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) COVID-19 Isolation Centre. A 360-500 bed facility located at THISDAY Dome in Abuja’s Central Business District.
Phase3, a member of the Corporate Coalition Against COVID-19 (CACOVID) says, this development is motivated by the company’s focus to do all that it possibly can, to help local communities in reducing the risk and preventing the spread of COVID-19 in Nigeria. As accessible high-speed and secure internet across communities, testing, isolation and healthcare facilities, is integral to effective COVID-19 response.
