Have you seen/heard of the news that Starlink had being approved by the nigerian government to operate in nigeria

Now how much do you really think that will cost an average nigerian or let's say the less opportune ?
A single starlink dish can power over 100 users. At $110 monthly subscription, shared between 100 users. It can be as cheap as 5k for unlimited broadband Internet.

Do you really know what $99 is in Nigeria. That's about N60k/Month

Is that big money for data? When given that data you will be earning over a million?

Re: How Much Will Starlink Cost In Nigeria by Freethinker87: 9:15pm On May 28, 2022
It's about N20,000 in India. I believe it should be around 15k-18k per month in Nigeria.

How do you know this?

Have you used it before?

Or do you work for the Starlink company?

Just want to know anyway and nothing much because it's seems you have used it before with your testimonies.

I repeat. This was a personal experience that I had in 2019 on a business trip to Paris.

No jokes 2 euros for 100gb was subscribed on new line that I was given by the host partners in Paris. I confirmed and was mindful of this fact because it became part of the main consideration during the business discussion about a project whose franchise was deployed easily as-is via the internet in France (and Europe generally) because data was cheap. However, the franchisee segment of the business couldn’t be deployed as-is in Nigeria because data was quite expensive, and would prove onerous to potential franchisees.

An additional issue was the electricity supply that would also increase operating costs. Only the online aspect of the business was eventually deployed (imagine!!!).

That is why my statement was clear about the last time I personally took note (2019). However, with rising energy cost now in Europe, the rates may have changed but the difference will still be clear even if it is a 100% increase or more, else all their tv viewership which typically runs on internet streaming would be worst hit.

The bottom line is that data is very expensive in Nigeria, and some of the government officials (NCC) have repeatedly tried to address it.








Bros I av been living in an EU country since 2014 and never since that time was 100gb sold for 2€. I happen to even use one of d cheapest sims in my country and its 9.99€ for 10gb per month. So this your story of 2€ for 100gb in 2019 does not gel for me honestly

29500 is what I currently pay for fibre used by like 28 people. About 55K (roughly $99) to upgrade in order to accommodate 20 more folks, without issues.

Depending on the businesses $99 Starlink can make a lot of sense . But not for an individual, except they can make business with it.

You were on a business trip, not living in Europe.Your costs were probably being subsidsied by your partners.

In France, one gb costs between 0.09 -118 dollars while in Nigeria, one gb costs between 0.03-5.25 dollars.

We are even cheaper than South Africa (0.12-35 dolalrs) and Chad, Ghana, etc.....

they will lose if they charge this high ,
how many people can afford 60,000 for data in a month when they can get far far cheaper data at maybe 30k to 40k
starlink will have to study the market and i don't think their rate will be much different from what is on ground now with other network , but their service delivery is the main issue , they must try to deliver good service and then they will get a sizeable market
they will likely have different packages ,that is the best way to beat their competitors and win the market
Cheap data doesn't mean good data. I will gladly pay $99 per month for unlimited data.

It means I will safe 14700 on DStv. My current monthly data usage is around 20k, my wife around 10k per month. Plus savings from DStv that's about 50k around and it is UNLIMITED.

Some individuals are invested in the narrative that Nigeria is poverty capital of the world, Nigerians live on less than one dollar a day etc. This picture of Nigeria helps fuel restiveness - psychology is very powerful. Therefor your suggestion, which implies that many Nigerians will afford the service somewhat contradicts the image of poverty stricken Nigeria ripe for dismantling ....
