A telecommunications operator, T2 and Knot Solutions, a leading digital transformation company based in India, have signed a multi-million-dollar strategic partnership. The partnership aimed to modernize T2’s Business Support Systems (BSS) and Operations Support Systems (OSS), with the aim of ushering in a digital renaissance in telecom.
The signing ceremony was held yesterday at the ongoing GITEX Nigeria 2025 Exhibition and Conference, which brought together industry leaders, innovators, and stakeholders from across Africa and beyond.
This partnership marks a significant milestone in T2’s four-phase transformation strategy: Stabilisation, Modernisation, Transformation, and Growth as T2 positions itself for a powerful comeback in Nigeria’s competitive telecom sector. This structured approach underscores its commitment to restoring competitiveness, driving customer-centric innovation, and enabling Nigeria’s digital future.
With strategic initiatives such as national roaming already underway, and a recent multi-million-dollar infrastructure deal with Huawei, creating a powerful dual-pronged strategy that modernizes network operations, access to infrastructure and digital customer engagement platforms, T2 said is poised to redefine the digital experience for millions of Nigerian customers.
Together, these deals mark a defining moment in T2’s aggressive return to market leadership, while also showcasing a bold vote of confidence in the Nigerian economy by the company’s investors, led by Chairman Thomas Etuh.
CEO of T2 Mobile, Obafemi Banigbe, said, “This is not just a systems upgrade. It’s a customer-first revolution that transforms how people interact with their digital world, seamlessly, instantly, and on their terms.”
With this foundation in place, T2 Mobile is boldly positioning itself beyond the traditional telecom business. The company is evolving into a platform player, one that delivers not only voice and data, but also digital financial services, content, cloud services, and smart lifestyle offerings.
Banigbe highlighted that T2’s vision goes beyond just enhancing its telecom network. ‘We’re crafting an ecosystem where connectivity is the key to unlocking a world of possibilities – from entertainment and education to commerce and financial empowerment.”
CEO, Knot Solutions, Sumanth Konuru, said: “Africa’s telecom landscape is transforming rapidly, and the modernization of BSS and OSS platforms is at the core of that shift. With our flagship cloud-native platform, RaptrDXP™, T2 is gaining the ability to move beyond traditional, rigid service models into a dynamic, hyper-personalized ecosystem and we’re proud to be part of this journey and excited about what we will accomplish together.”
