Nigerian Govt Reduces Price Of Data By 50 Percent

Nigerian government says that the price of data has been reduced by more than 50 percent following a directive that the Nigerian Communications commission, NCC, should put in place measures to that effect.






Accordingly, the price of data of 1GB has been reduced from 1000 naira to 487 naira beginning from last November.


The Minister of Communications and digital economy Dr Isa Ibrahim Pantami who broke the news on Thursday, said it was in line with the directive he gave to the regulatory agency (NCC) to put measures in place to reduce the average cost of data in the country.


“The average cost of 1GB of data has reduced from the January 2020 cost of N1,000 to N487.18 in November, 2020.

Stella, please also know that it hasn't been implemented yet!

They pass all these bills without a follow up to know if it was implemented or not.
I heard the price of data is still the same. Nothing has changed
