Most Nigerians have multiple sims/phones...

such Sim cards are registered under the same person. It's the same with having more than two bank accounts but all the bank account is connected via bvn

MrPresh2020:
That's huge for any Telecom company. If they have 5million subscribers who recharge N200 minimum per month that would be N200 x 5,000,000 = 1Billion Naira monthly.

And how much do you estimate they will use to pay their workers and also service and maintain their equipment to provide steady services to their 5 million subscribers per month?

No b lie because me I have like 7 SIM card because of the unavailability of networks in most remote locations one card for call 1 for data minus etisalat which I have just one as it is usually a useless network in remote locations .

My landlady's daughter has like five for her numerous boyfriends and I know when she finally agrees for me it will turn to 6 grin

oh really. Like they don't ask you to bring a valid ID card or affidavit to prove you're the owner of the Sim card? grin

Are we up to 200m in Nigeria? I doubt because of figures like these. many people have 3 sim cards or more and even though kids don't all have sims, I doubt our figure.
