abeq tell 'em jawe!! I wonder who came-up with this kind fact

I believe it because 'best' and 'average' performances do not reflect in the 'average user' connected to the 'average provider' using 'average hardware'. Its all relative. But on the whole I've noticed a marked improvement in 2012 alone.

internet speed only works in the remote villages where you dont have much traffic,and where you have more industralised areas like in port harcourt,it's very very slow like esp' from 6pm to 11pm,network is very slow
i dont know about this new ''MTN fastest opera''but before you download it,one must have gone to their office to synchronise your sim card before it works.
Albeit,i think Airtel is surely the best fastest network in Africa

I had a look at the report itself.
These are the real statistics:

30 © 2012 Akamai Technologies, Inc. All Rights Reserved
Figure 23: Average and Average Peak Connection Speed per Month by Mobile Provider
AFRICA
Egypt EG-1 592 3914
Morocco MA-1 996 9579
Nigeria NG-1 322 5674
South Africa ZA-1 496 2172

We have the lowest average and second-highest peak speed after Morocco.
Morocco must be the ish. No wonder their king is still running things wink

excondido: nice to hear we are making gaint strides, much better than the negatives we are associated with lately.

gaint strides my foot. Did u not see how much billions telecomunication consumers spend in Nigeria last year. Was it more than half a trillion. Abeg, its our moneys worth. If we have to spend that much we should expect faster internet and better service.

Nigerians(majority) are classic hence strive for the best,they dont smile at mediocrity thats what make them who they are.
Re: Nigeria Has The Fastest Internet Speed In Africa? by Flow44: 12:36pm On Aug 23, 2012
This news is true I can confirm that, its even all over the net. But aside from that, in just less than 2 months, I have downloaded data of more than 300gig at an alarming speed.

It doesnt mean that if you are living in an area of limited service, the whole country is like that. Some still have to go close to their window before they can make call but for me I have a very strong network at my place.

Stop critising too much thereby wasting precious time you would have used to do something good for yourself. We know we dont have the best of leaders but things are improving wether they like it or not.
