Nigeria seems to have improved in internet presence. Not bad, we seem to have much more users than SA, with all the high speed broadband out there.

What is wrong with Zimbabwe?
Looks like that will be the next lucrative destination for cybercafes and increased influx of second hand computer products from the western world. .  grin

Re: Internet Usage In Africa: Nigeria is Second by chidyke77(m): 10:55am On Dec 06, 2009
being the first or last doesnt make any difference for now cos nigerian subscribers are nt really enjoying what the paid for because of sluggish network of our internet providers and inconsistency. its better that we are last and thereby getting what we paid for.
Re: Internet Usage In Africa: Nigeria is Second by olanie(m): 11:16am On Dec 06, 2009
considering our population, we should be way ahead of them all !

[/i][b][/b][i][color=#990000][/color] angry I find it rather hard to believe that Nigeria is number two in Africa, how accurate is this rating.
Re: Internet Usage In Africa: Nigeria is Second by LloydGreg(m): 1:04pm On Dec 06, 2009
Still can't believe that Egypt rank's higher than Nigeria

Hmmm, it must be the banking sector that increased the charts.

I wouldn't say so.
Have you noticed that virtually all the telcos, GSM or CDMA, have rolled out consumer Internet offerings pan-Nigeria? There are also a lot of ISP competitors who have rolled out cheap CPE solutions on WiMAX or FWA.
The only challenge we have yet is the bandwidth to the outside world, which hopefully should improve with MainOne and Glo's Glo One cable. Next year will definitely be interesting for Internet professionals. Even in East Africa, lots of capacity is expected via Seacom.
In 2006, BBC reported that 61% of their global WAP traffic was coming from Nigeria. We should soon outstrip Egypt by sheer force of numbers, and offerings.
Re: Internet Usage In Africa: Nigeria is Second by Dclique(m): 11:03am On Dec 07, 2009
Wow, 61% of global WAP traffic is coming nigeria? grin lol. I am sure by now those ratings would have increased.

Re: Internet Usage In Africa: Nigeria is Second by zmurda(m): 2:27pm On Dec 07, 2009
Its to be expected. Considering we have almost twice Egypts population one would expect a larger percentage of internet users from Nigeria.
Hopefully with a higher internet penetration wis a vis good service this would improve

tell them ohhh!!! as usual we are rejoicing forgeting to see inbetween the lines.

considering our sheer weight in numbers,  the distance btw nigeria and others(put together) is meant to be lightyears.

if the poll were done by usage per head, we are sure to be flat last
