Nigeria’s fifth Mobile Network Operator and first 4G/LTE Advanced network
commenced operations on 8 April, 2016 with commercial sales of Voice-over-LTE
and high-speed Internet Access services, on their newly commissioned
4G/LTE-Advanced network.
The
commencement of commercial operations was the culmination of their journey from
acquiring the old NiTel/MTel assets to the delivery of successive milestones
underlining their growing operating capability on their new fixed and mobile
network infrastructure.

Lagos and Port Harcourt in the first phase of their expansion. The commencement
of operations in Port Harcourt is thus the completion of a cycle and a promise
kept to subscribers.

900/1800MHz spectrum which continues to deliver an unbeatable and game-changing
customer experience of high-speed Internet Access and unlimited data, the
