This is even as over nine million people in Nigeria lost access to the Internet in 2021. The NBS data, which was released on Monday, showed that in the last quarter of 2021, South West region had the highest online users, about 41.7 million, followed by North Central with 26.6 million. Troubled North West states had 25.4 million users; South South is next with 20.8 million Internet users; North East had 13.8 million. On the operators performance, in the North East, MTN had 6.27 million users, Glo 2 million; Airtel 5.2 million and 9mobile 240, 787 users. In the North West, MTN led the table with 11.8 million subscribers, followed by Airtel with 7.6 million. Globacom is third with five million users and 9mobile 854,698 subscribers. For North Central, MTN maintained the lead with 9.7 million users, followed by Globacom 9.6 million, Airtel was third with 6.1 million and 9mobile 1.11 million customers. In the South West, MTN serviced 15.7 million customers; Globacom users were 13.2 million; Airtel 10.4 million and 9mobile 2.19 million. In the South South, MTN had 8.3 million users; Globacom 6.7 million; Airtel 4.9 million and 9mobile 750,664. For the South East, MTN subscribers were 6.93 million, Airtel was second with 3.2 million customers; Globacom 2.9 million and Airtel 596,752 users. In terms of voice, the statistics also showed that Lagos State had the highest number of active voice subscribers in the fourth quarter of 2021, followed by Kano and Ogun States. Bayelsa and Ebonyi States had the least number of subscribers, according to the NBS. Telecoms figures for Q2 2021 showed that a total of 187,611,501 subscribers were active on voice as against 196,242,456 in Q2 2020. This represents a 4.4 per cent decrease in voice subscriptions Year-on-Year. Quarter-on-Quarter growth was -2.50 per cent. MEANWHILE, heads of some of the biggest European operators have published an open letter in the FT claiming Europe’s telecoms market risks falling behind rivals and that big tech really need to help out if continued network infrastructure is going to happen. It is jointly signed by José María Álvarez-Pallete López, Chairman and Chief Executive at Telefónica, Tim Höttges, Chief Executive at Deutsche Telekom, Nick Read, Chief Executive at Vodafone, and Stéphane Richard, Chairman and Chief Executive at Orange. Telcos have got together to make the same case before. The argument boils down to modern network infrastructure, which big tech has been able to get filthy rich from the boom in streaming and cloud demand. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This has been the trend for close to a decade or so since this data started getting recorded by the Telcos. The same trend applies to voice-data as well, not just internet. I think it could be because the Igbos don't have enough purchasing power to load their phones for internet access compared to other regions. Even the boko-haram ravaged North-Eastern region fares better than them in that regard. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

From this data, it is unfair that MTN took its tax credit project to Owerri-Enugu expressway in the South East and abandoned Lagos, Kano and Ogun. This is completely unfair and unacceptable. The tax credit should have been used in any or all of the top 3 states of Lagos, Kano and Ogun,especially Lagos since we will eventually pick the lion share of the funds MTN will use to fund the project. It will amount to injustice if no tax credit project is in all of those top 3 states . This will amount to economic injustice and it should be challenged in court. The biggest cash spinner for these telcos is data and they must use part of the profit for big time legacy projects in those states giving it most of its profit. I will recommend that Lagos State Government needs to immediately look into this and make MTN pick a big ticket infrastructure project like the 4th Mainland bridge and pay for it with the FG tax credit system. In fact,such move is good for MTN since it makes most of its money in Lagos. Investment in Lagos should be a win win to every stakeholder. We want more investment in Lagos. How can you be making the bulk of your profit in Lagos, Kano and Ogun then abandon those 3 states and now take tax credit to build project in Imo and Enugu states alone. MTN must pick projects in those 3 Lagos, Kano and Ogun state too. There is a planned road to link Lekki Epe axis straight to Ondo state, MTN can build it for us with its tax credit. Ogun state needs help to link its cargo airport straight to Lagos by train and road and Kano needs alternative roads to connect some neighbouring states too. MTN can please pick up the Lagos project first because they make the most chunk of their profit in Lagos. They do not need to suspend their project in the SE but they must be fair to us in Lagos State. 3 Likes

The same "internet" that advertises Yoruba Youths with their internet "yahoo rituals" ?? The same internet that has been bastardized by your brothers and sisters from Oshogbo, who use it as a medium for "Hate" propagation? The same internet that employed miscreants like your "Deji Adeyanju/Sowore" etc to insult their elders randomly? The fact remains that the internet usage in this context is predominantly from the Lagos Axis....which encompasses everybody. Who dash hungry Aonja Data Money.?? How can there be internet in OSHOGBO...when Skull harvesting is more lucrative??...Even the babalawo, uses "IFA" internet to consult.. Keep Gallivanting up and dan...IGBO people are light years ahead..you are just a lamenting machine! omenkaLives: 4 Likes |

The king will always be the King, no matter what the Fake Jews think or say.... You can't stop the work of God. Those people live in Abject poverty in their tiny region to the extent that, they no even get money to buy smart phone and data Yoruba has been leading in technology, development, economic, education and so on since all these while why the Mpur miri drug addict is leading in Kidnappings, poverty, killing and other criminal activities .We choose Tinubu... They chose KANU. Their KANU is about to get death sentence while our Tinubu is about to be President.... The different is clear. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

IGBO people are 2000000times better in all positive ramifications than generational zombies from the region of the fallen demon. You have all these qualities and "Hunger and insecurity" sleeps permantly in your life? You have all these traits and South-wastee people "harvest the skullz" of their brothers everyday for money rituals? You saw Obi Cubana video, immediately 10,000 of your brothers went on to eat feaces and eat human heads to make wealth? You guyz disgust even the devil.
