The Nigeria Internet Registration Association (NiRA) has lifted temporary suspension on DomainKing.ng after compliance to the association’s standards.
NiRA in a statement signed by its Chief Operating Officer, Edith Udeagu, said on Friday 24th March 2017, an official representative of Hannu Internet Corp PVT LTD, the manager of DomainKing.ng, informed the .ng Registry that since 20th March 2017, the organization had re-opened its support channels, commenced resolving clients’ queries and has commenced preparations for full operations as a .ng Accredited Registrar.
The officer also reported how they are cooperating with their clients to provide them with support and other services beyond registering .ng domain names.
The NIRA Board has evaluated and assessed the situation of Domainking.ng and therefore, lifted the suspension.
Hannu Internet Corp PVT Ltd has responded to the .ng Registry within the allowed grace period with an outline on its dealings with its clients and its eagerness to return to full operations.
NiRA said in the statement, “As from Monday 27th March 2017, NIRA has lifted the temporary suspension of Hannu Internet Corp PVT Ltd. However, the Registrar will not be able to register new domains for another two weeks, as the .ng Registry continues to monitor its activities and the way it resolves pending customer issues.
“The association also noted that during the period that Domainking.ng was not available to attend to its .ng clients, those clients who requested for the transfer and renewal of their .ng domain names were able to do so.”
