Nigeria country code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) has continued to defy harsh economic environment to record some levels of growth.
The country’s .ng domain name registration, renewal and restoration continued to grow with a new record of 211,164 as of November 2023.
The current statistics, available on the official website of the Nigeria Internet Registration Association (NiRA), Nigeria’s country code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) registry, showed that the .ng domain name registration, renewal and restoration, rose again from 203,904 in September of the year under review, to 206,970 in October, before reaching 211,164 in November.
In his end-of-year message to .ng DNS stakeholders, Mr. Sola Akinsanya, the President of NiRA, said it was ‘A Year of Digital Triumph: Closing Remarks for 2023’.
He said that serving as the custodians of the .ng domain, NiRA’s role has been pivotal, underscored by strategic partnerships and the unwavering dedication of the secretariat to advancing Nigeria’s internet landscape.
Recall that members of the NiRA elected a new Executive Board (EBoD) on Friday April 28, 2023, during the 15th Annual General Meeting (AGM) where Mr. Akinsanya emerged the President.
“From the outset of my tenure as President, a central pillar of our mission has been to fortify NiRA’s presence and expand its influence in the digital landscape”.
He added that a key strategy to realise this vision was to cultivate significant collaborations.
