Nigerians And Kenyans: Who Pays More For Data Services? by NaijaTechGuy(m): 6:57am On Mar 23, 2018
Data Subscription in different countries is usually different due to the economic conditions and operating costs of the Telecom Companies in each country. Airtel for example ,offers cheaper data services in its home country - India , than it does in Nigeria. In this post I collaborated with Dickson Otieno of Tech-Ish.com, a Kenyan Tech Blog. We'll be comparing the data plans in both countries and at the end we'll be calculating who spends more on data.


I believe this will let us know how much it costs citizens of both countries to access the internet and of course those who have enough data to waste on Twitter wars. If you are an active twitter user , you must have come across the #NigeriaVsKenya hashtag sometime. Well just in case you haven't brace yourself, it's about to get messy - Check a tweet with that hashtag -

#NigeriavsKenya the devil originated from Kenya.....sack heart, dark soul, dark blood

Who spends more on data ?


For 1GB , Kenyans spend an average of 240-499 KES that's between N850- N1600 (for normal data plans)

Nigerians spend between N1000 - N1200 (KES 280 - KES 336 ) for 1GB and 1.5GB data plans


For 3GB - Kenyans spend between KES 499 - KES 999 that's between N1700 - N3400

Nigerians spend between N2000-N2500 .( KES- 560 - KES 700)

So It seems Kenyans actually spend more on data services. Nigerian Telcos are less expensive than their Kenyan counterparts. Of course , If there's an error in this post, feel free to let me know. Don't forget to tweet this and share as well.

whichever way you look at it, Nigeria na the sheetest hole. with the highest population in Africa you would expect a reduction of tariff as per economists more population lesser tariff. criminals and thieves have found respect and comfort in Nigeria. comparing a country reliant on hospitality and a top supplier of petroleum product in the world is like comparing a giant to a rat.

Nigerians are suffering from corruption even to the grass root. Kenyans have electricity which we do not have. that should have been the basis for the discussion not even phone bills.

1gig in Kenya is actually 1gig

1gig in Nigeria is fabricated, its less than 500mb. If you don't believe me monitor your data usage counter after usage and see what it reads wink
