Recently, mobile service providers in Nigeria reviewed downward their data charges. We noticed a spate of adverts from the telecom giants in Nigeria with some ridiculous rates for data bundles so we decided to investigate if it is true, a promo or a gimmick.
We say ridiculous because globally, we know that the internet is becoming cheaper and in some cases free, but we didn’t believe it would happen that fast in Nigeria.
Well, we are glad to say that below are the new rates of data as at the date of publication.
