Nigeria: 36m Nigerians to Own Mobile Phones Next Year - Study

http://allafrica.com/stories/200605260184.html

Eshekel Limited is wrong!

36 million Nigerians cannot own mobile phones by next year. Because, majority of Nigerians are still illiterates in the rural areas who live below the poverty line. And most of them cannot even afford to eat a balanced diet talkless of paying for a mobile phone.

Eshekel Limited is apparently clueless on the real demography of Nigeria. And also ignorant of the GDP - per capita (PPP) of Nigeria.
