Seriously shocked



I have this cool business idea that can yield you 5 million naira in 3 months if you are willing to invest 200k. If you have a brand you want to promote throughout Africa that'll be an additional advantage to you in this partnership.

Same thing will happen to Globacom soon.




Very stupidly slow network.


You buy a 4gb plan for one month and you'd only be able to use 100mb before the slurry nonsense expires.


Useless people.

This is not unconnected to the harsh business environment. Alot of people have reduced from carrying 2 or more phones/simcard to just 1.

We do not anticipate any improvement in the near future. Sad realities.

SalamRushdie:
A alot of factors might be responsible but the primary remains the poor leadership of Buhari has made most Nigerians some of the poorest people on the planet that many people are no longer able to sustains two phone lines conveniently again , another reason is that life expectancy under Buhari is so low and mortality rate so high that many GSM Subscribers have lost their lives to hardship, lack of health care , poor security , human abuse and extrajudicial executions all of which are hallmarks of the very disorganised govt we currently have.
aside the reasons u gave, Nigerians are fleeing Nigeria en mass as if there is civil war in Nigeria since Buhari came into power.

If Nigerians make the mistake of re-electing Buhari for 2nd tenure, Nigeria will be a horrible country to live for the next 4 or more years.


In the interest of Nigerians, Buhari should plz not contest plz

Re: Telcos Lose 14.3 Million Subscribers In 10 Months by UfuomaUN(m): 7:50am On Dec 11, 2017
The situation is even worse than presented by the OP. Many Telco related companies are in deep financial crisis. A Telecom company I know gradually over the year sacked all their well paid staff in operations Dept without reason and replaced them with fresh graduates and interns cos they can't pay 6 figure salaries anymore. Even in the SBC were I work, I happened to come across nearly 50 names that would be dropped this December while poking my nose in my boss files. Worst part is some of them are my friends but I just can't bring myself to call them and tell them.

That's why when people say Buhari for 2019 I feel an irresistible urge to strangle them or get a gun and shoot them.

Where I live doesn't matter.
A good network should have a good coverage.Glo lacks that greatly.
For your question, I live in Nigeria.
