How do you guys over there manage to even get internet access?

rejoice4eva:
Please, admin and naira Landers, help us push this up. This community is yet to have good access to digital communication,even though
Ipesi Akoko is in Akoko South East Local government area of Ondo State. It is home to about 20000 populace with their people all over the world.

It has a college of education. It is home to Ebomi Lake. A potential tourist attraction of international status.

A network provider has erected a mast for over 6 years and the project is uncompleted.

Please any one with any assistance on how this community can have good network access should help

You're very correct, because I've been there of recent, I'm from Isua - Akoko the HQs of Akoko south-east local government.
As a matter of fact, there are some places in Epemi that you have to stroll out from your house for some meters before one could get an unstable wave of telephonenetwork.

Only in my Yorubaland
Yoruba Amaka

Airtel is good at covering remote locations. If the community will provide free land and maybe other incentives, that will attract at least one service provider. It won't be a bad idea for say the LG to offer to pick up the cost of running the gen for sometime.

ever since I arrive at ipesi.... we have been on dis issue of network for long but dey refuse to do something about it, they kept on promising but couldn't fulfil their promise... the worse aspect is that the village is lacking behind ever since their king died since 2005... they refuse to elect another king due to their selfish interest..
most of the people that occupy in ipesi her not believer dey believe in their so call fetish powers.

When you hear Yoruba peoplewith their NBS statistics

Wetin network providers go Dey do for ghost cities of Yoruba people

All Yoruba states are glorified villages .... osun ogun oyo ekiti ondo ... the hate truth .

Desperation made the op shout.... but you see how his fellow Yoruba people are avoiding the thread

Yoruba and chest beating .. they’ve all abandoned their states for Lagos.. all yorub now Na lagosian.. non is proud of his state/ local government

Na why they believe say igbos Dey reason like them... the think say igboland be like Yoruba land and that Igbo states are ghosted like theirs..

Yoruba people should go back to their states and be proud of themselves

Always doing themselves... thinking they’re doing others

you deserved three bedroom flat at Yaba left with this your mindset.

It has a college of education but no network service so apparently no internet service.

I wonder then what the students and lecturers of the college use to carry out research work

I know that Nigeria is not making people think well but don't show it in a way that will embarras a people/nation/tribe. If you are Igbo, i'm sorry for you cos i am and will never make that kindly of comment even at 10 years old. Please use your sense and don't divert discussions.
There are so many towns without network and this is spread throughout the country.
A lot is considered, some are 2G only site(voice calls with poor internet), 3G and a few 4G sites. Any town along a major highway is most likely to have network regardless of the population or economic activities there as the connection is serving people on transit.
I wont be surprise that the major challenge in that is the topography. Ondo has a lot of rocks and highlands as well as vegetation that may be causing obstruction to waves. The network providers will position their base station at a point that will serve most people(other towns around). Most parts of the north face security and verse land challenge, reason for poor network connect in that region.
My advice, contact the customer care of all the network providers via email(very important). Something will be done with time.

amzee:
Dont worry we will set up a committee to look into the matter.

I just contacted President Buhari and he was SHOCKED.

Thank you for your kind intervention.

Please don't forget to remind Buhari today that we are yet to see his urgent action on the issue.

Well..it isn't only in that part of the country..
In Eda-Ile Ekiti in Ekiti East L.G.A of Ekiti State here, there is no telecom mast..
They go to some spots in the town before they can do anything with network..
We are in Nigeria..
Live with it!!!

Emyogalanya:
a big town or a big village u mean?

Lagos or Abuja is still a village compared to some real towns and cities in the world.
Notwithstanding, whether as a town or village , Ipesi Akoko deserves access to better modern communication facilities , especially internet.

Nitori olorun what are we saying what is dizwan saying biko?

U sha manage turn am to tribal issue.
Stop disgracing ur tribesmen.

The network performance in the general Akoko area is bad, except ikare Akoko where you can get intermittent 4G, I hardly see any areas where the network performance is excellent in Akoko, even banks in ikare often complain of no network when the customers visit for transaction. Nigerian telecommunications need to invest more to improve their services in Akoko area

You need help asap, psychological help

WesternOligarch:
Look how flatin0s are wankking on this thread while people are actively looking for a solution to the problem of a community while they're kinsmen killing themselves over cassava farm and 4x4 property and burning down checkpoints, police station and their flity region alaigbo.......

OP I've made a call to a friend of mine who works in Glo, they're going to look into it soon enough.

some times, I just look at this people(online igbos & yorubas) as a senseless people. Someone is trying to find a solution to his peoples problem and those idiots online are bashing him...See most of them from first page to second page saying rubbish

And may be set up a National Sovereignty Conference on the matter.

richmond500:
yes they do, especially in SS region, all those small small towns that isn't accessible by road cos of a big sea that runs into kilometers surrounding the town

Nawa

Solsix:
Do places like that still exist in 2021?

They exist.

stalwart123:


Can you share the coordinates of this big town.

Big' is relative sir. Thanks

Thank you.
I'm a core Igbo man with wife and children, own assets and Farming in the SW.
I'll tell my wife to do that for me once i need it.

go to twitter tag influential people from that state and also the service providers. you can even do well by adding the pictures of the uncompleted mast project

uwuana:
Ipesi is in Edo state, close to Auchi, not Ondo

Check your facts. Ipesi Akoko, Akoko South East Local Government Ondo State.
The one you are talking about is Ipesi Atte in Edo. History have it that people from Ipesi Akoko went to live there ( tedo) some years ago

santakris:
Firstly, you have to appeal to Oosa ibilé and the witches of that community. I am sure they stand in the way of development of that community.

So winch non dey other village?

Nigercity:
Hmmm
In this 21 century

Brown roof people shaa

I thought this kind of things only exist in northern Nigeria

It is everywhere

Fejoku:
The community is one of those hidden communities in boundary between Ondo and Edo around the Akoko area. I doubt the population is even up to 15,000 people given how small it is. It's even off the major roads along that axis. The higher institution there is called Upland College of Education.
Hopefully, the Akeredolu government will expedite action that will ensure the community gets the much needed coverage.

It's a lie the population is over 500k almost a million people

rejoice4eva:
Thanks. MTN has responded, but they are asking for some information. Also glo responded, they asked me to send them mail. Which I did.

They responded via this platform or twitter?
