Etisalat is not really the fastest network, it look fast because of low traffic. 12m data users compare to mtn 30m data users. u ll not even see network outside the city.
Airtel nig, the most untrustworthy network. sometimes they bill ur data at 1.5 rate.
Glo the most frustrating, gives me more data but wouldn't let me use it.
Mtn they are not perfect, but in general, they are the best network for both data and calls.
