The new telephones numbers were added in the first quarter of 2019 and belonged to about 44 licensed telecom operators.

Some of the operators with national and states licences, according to a document on NNP from NCC, are MTN Nigeria Communications, Vodacom, Globacom, Natcom, 9Mobile, 21st Century Technologies Limited, Airtel Networks Limited and Cyberspace Limited.
