benqo01:Look, what they do is they deduct a certain amount of your data when your data is turned off, try this and thank me later. Check your data balance before you switch off your data connection then let say in 15-20 minutes you turn it on and see if it remains the same. MTN is usually culpable of this theft, I bundled 2 GB on my mtn line, checked before switching off it was 1.975gb, turn it on again it became 1.875 gb, 100 mb was deducted illegally from my mtn line. |

onyechez:How many base stations have you visit to see how maintenance work are done? Secondly, the aforementioned countries you mentioned cost of power isn't the same with ours incase you aren't aware. Telecom over here pay more to power their gadgets, they pay multiple taxes and they incurr other costs you aren't aware of. Thirdly, you fail to acknowledge that the aforementioned countries has a stronger currency when compared to ours; our currency continue to depreciate without any effort from the government to savalge the situation. Fourthly, You fail to acknowledge that those countries are small hence they can be easily covered whereas ours is large. Haven't you wonder why till date, the telecom operators haven't covered the nook and crannies of Nigeria? Till date, many areas are still using Edge whereas others haven't seen 4g LTE.Lastly, haven't you wonder why Etisalat and Vodacom left Nigeria..? It is easy to critic,it easy to compare countries with ours but the reality on ground shows that the environment of business in Nigeria isn't the same with Ghana and others. Up till now, we are still battling with poor internet connectivity. Any, that research has some flaws especially the methodology. 1 Like |

edoairways:They pay all these multiple taxes yet MTN currently celebrated profit of 100 billion naira than ever since they started business operations in Nigeria. I laugh you in Chinese. Go and check countries with ease of doing business in Africa and would see the position of Nigeria since you are comparing and raising high flag of multiple taxes. Also check the tax revenue and returns from each countries in Africa and see the position of Nigeria. |

crossfm: How exactly does Ghana depend on us? We do not give Ghana electricity if that is what you are thinking? All we do is sell gas to them, which they use to power electricity, alongside their working dams. Don't blame Ghana for the useless and incompetent leadership we have had over the years. 1 Like |

martineverest: Don't mind people who take headlines in on nairaland as gospel truth and articles from unsubstantiated reports. I am typing this from Houston and my internet is $45 (21k) for unlimited and download speed of 75Mbps for a fibre connection (xfinity), which is the cheapest bundle I could get. In Lagos, my broad based fibre service is N10K for unlimited data at 10Mbps speed. You can argue that they earn better there, true but living expenses are also higher here. I save more in Nigeria than US. Here you make more money, but even with $10k a month salary, if you are not careful, you will not keep $1000 back every month. 2 Likes |

COMPAQ:I didn't blame Ghana from my statement. In fact I was complimenting them.A country that gets gas from us to use to power their electricity is doing well.that was the point I was trying to portray. |

Bossman:Via wired fiber optics has nothing to do with it, it is more expensive to get license in fiber optics than mobile data /network, more expensive to maintain than the other which is cheap yet expensive in the part of our world. The one we have access to it is still expensive when in those advanced countries that has access to it like us it is cheap compared to us particularly in Nigeria. |
