I personally love .Ng but would not go for it the simple reason being that most Nigeria hosting companies are not up to standard and i find it hard doing anything serious with them I also don't like buying domain here and hosting somewhere else Na long thing |

.ng extension is more suitable for nigerian orgs that strictly serves only Nigerians. See http://nasson.org.ng .com is suitable for global competition.

Recall: The National Assembly has been tasked to hasten the process of passing the Chartered Institute of Statisticians of Nigeria (CISON) Bill into law to help check the quality and confidentiality in data management in the country. read more....http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/body-tasks-national-assembly-on-statisticians-bill/161368/ Iv was able to reserve the domains: http://cison.org.ng and http://cisn.org.ng Hit links for contact details |
