nijanigga: What a joke.Gullible Nigerians buy this. Police that will tell you they don' have petrol in their vehicles will answer 7411 call.Nigeria like to jump ship, babies learn to walk after mastering crawling. 7411 is stillbirth

from another angle this number is a good opportunity to checkmate how responsible our security agents are towards distress calls. one can trace the station called and the officers on duty at the time the distres call was directed to them. it's a good development.

the number no dey go.....

I was excited when i read this and then immediately tried the website. I then realised that this is 9ja. Here things don't alway work as in elsewhere.( Bandwidth limit exceeded). God save and bless Nigeria

Is this number working already...it keeps telling me that it does not exist everytime I call

Named “7411 bureau of information”, the service also has businesses listings, people finders, driving directions, tax advices, address finders, health histories, record back-up, weather forecasts, reverse phone tracker, and jobs finder.

The technical company in charge of the project quoted the Director of Engineering at the Nigerian Communication Commission (NCC), Mr. Sani Adamu, as saying that “to have easy access into information and life saving tips Nigerians residents can dial 7411 on any phone in Nigeria and +2347411 from outside Nigeria, or access the link on 411ng.com.

emergency number? for weather forecasts?

the company no even get name chai

MoU nation, contract for oyinbo

you are not allowed to call this number... the response i got

411ng.com

The devil is in the details, as the saying goes. Besides, I'm sure most of the 3000 clowns hired to run the system were hired on the basis of the usual padi-padi man-know-man nonsense, with little or no regard for competence. One can't expect too much from these characters.

YEAH THANKS WE ALREADY HAVE THE ONE WE USE IN LAGOS!

the company doesnt even exist!!!!

Jonathan is working, haters go and hugg live PHCN Transformer... Jonathan for 2015.... Sai Jonathan.

Dis sort of jerk is 4 gullible nigerians

we already have a dedicated toll free emergency helpline in Rivers State that is working well.

That's nice.

Was expecting them to tell us the meaning of Seven Four One One 7411

More networks will be live soon on the 7411 Directory services.
Please exercise some patience, as we see Nigeria transform into a better place in our life time.

Guys, be realistic. It takes time between when this number is approved by legislation and agreement are reached with all the telcos to hook up. It's a long process. Part of it is the registration of your SIM card. Also, they're yet to employ the 3,000 workers. Patience is the word for now. I believe strongly that it will work.

Just tried from my MTN it says it doesn't exist.

In my opinion, a three digit emergency number would have been easy to remember just like in other countries.

better still, we could have still used the existing 199 and make it active and publicize it.

nice idea by the way, but its not working for now, maybe later, they would rectify the fault.

this should have been done before publicizing it, it portrays a job half done...all necessary dependencies should have been cleared before saying the job is done. Nevertheless nice development, it should have been added among GEJ's quick wins but its coming a little late.

We are watching. If this is another failed proposition we are watching, if this will be a failed service we are watching, if this is another means for them to steal our money we are watching...

i can't belive this crab, how could they initiate a number that cost this much to connect to. I called this number with my etisalat line in 24seconds it deducted 50naira from my phone. What a nonsence Please let other persons try and see

Na wa u oh! How can u call an Emergency line 4 upto 24 seconds just to check if it works? Abi u wan chyke d girl wey for pick d call? Lol! If me b d 7411 i for chop all ur credit sef

Dialled 7411 from Airtel and MTN and it didn't work. Dialled Lagos State's 767 and it connected on first dial from both networks.

Perhaps 7411 only works in Abuja. The website is down too.

The line is too expensive to use in an emergency. Why not make it toll free. And as for the 411ng.com website I wonder who hosted it with such a low bandwidth for a NATIONAL EMERGENCY WEBSITE. #only in Naija

Them don start with this their story story. that is how they will start with "sweet mouth", later the project will join the numerous list of "ABANDONED PROJECTS"! even if it starts working, which police man go run to ur aid wen BH boys the try "nak" you? they'll rather ask for "egunje" b4 they will respond to ur distress call; probably by then u be RIP...MAY GOD HELP US!

donsteady: this number will be difficult for typical nigerian to memorize, 419 could have been better. no hard feeling.... wink

what do u mean? do u want to say the number is too complex for nigerians or what? oh it's 419 that's in ur head right?

Delafruita: exactly

but its working perfectly on etisalat line.

Anytime I read something like; "this we should achieve before the end of june 2014" in Naija, I just go back to sleep.

This a great development in Nigeria. I pray that God will bless Nigeria Gov't the more to do more of the assignment laid in there hands.

Oh!wat a good development but i hope dat,d last digit(1)will not turn to 9 soon.7419,we no get water,no fuel etc
