This increase is just so they can buy more diesel for their old and broken down generators. They will not buy any new equipment o, so if you are expecting better services......BIG LIE. You will still get the same old, dropped calls, air calls, poor data services, poor audio quality. Infact, this new tarrif is to continue funding Telecoms big boys life style.

This government is insensitive to the plight of Nigerians. Does the monitors that support this madness Pay for data. From presidency to local government chairman are all feed and taken care of by tax payers money, they will sit I the comfort of all of this and formulate policy that is detrimental to the tax payers. Upon all the loan they collected and share. I humbly demand that they should go and learn from Ibrahim Traore of Burkinafaso. He doesn't take any loan, yet he reduces governments expenditures and increases civil servants salaries. And they guy is younger than some of the politicians children that are still holding Nigeria down. A day is coming !!!

Will he agree to NLC if they say the salaries of civil servants will be reviewed periodically as well starting with 50% increase given the times we are for realistic sake?

We will endure all..

God's willing

Till when na bro?

I don't have any problem with the increment........Those Nigerians crying , as if they don't know that , everything in the country has increased.......
. A bottle of Guinness big stout now is 1500 - 2000 naira , depending on the area in Mainland. .......
Full Isi Ewu is now 8k - 9k ...... something that was below 5k , before Tinubu came him.......

I don't have a problem if telecom tariff is increased, my problem is the slow and sluggish way the Internet moves, whenever you needed to do something important..

There are sometimes network will be slow like bad police van, these people needs to be sued for all their shenanigans

Glo na King of slow

Well....

This increase comes on the back of telecoms companies reporting huge losses in the financial years of 2023 and 2024.

Their business operations were MAJORLY affected by the depreciation of the naira as the equipments used in the base stations and towers are imported, together with the heavy costs from telecoms providers, let's not forget the high cost of diesel used to running these base stations.

The increase will cause a further reduction in revenue for them.

My CEO sold the company to south Africans because the company charged in naira and the expenses are in dollar.

I hope in 2027, those who have businesses will vote wisely.

“I think the 50 percent tariff adjustment is a starting point. It’s about compromise, timing, and sequencing these necessary changes".

Kontinue!

And because of this quality of service has gone completely to shit.

Every call I make breaks half way, I can no longer hear callers clearly and WhatsApp calls keep dropping.

A real mess.

Because you want to satisfy telcos, you increased tarrifs
Because you want government to have money you removed subsidy on petrol and floated the naira
What have you don't to make the people not to suffer that has truly impacted their lives Tell us please.

As per the revenue, it is quite early to predict, let's see till the end of Q1 first.

Aww. I can imagine. One of my neighbours work at a multinational and the rented office here in Laygurs, they were paying rent in dollars. Lol they recently changed building to a cheaper one that the rent would be paid in naira.

Hahahaha 🤣🤣 Karleb, this is funny. You shouldn't be surprised. Nigerians love their oppressors. Tinuboo will complete his 8 years.

So everyone else gets they cushion they require but the poor masses. Everyone keeps passing their costs down until it gets to the man on the street, who has nowhere to turn.

I was only stating the reality on ground. Everyone's gonna be affected in the long run, including the poor masses. This happens when the citizenry choose bad leaders, everyone pays the price for bad choices.

you are already paying for the cost in terrible quality of service

have you not noticed that WhatsApp calls keep dropping, that you can barely hear the person you are conversing with ? sometimes mtn has five minute data outages.
