He also said that they, "NTEL" will solve many slow internet connection problems in Nigeria while relating it with the population of internet users in the country.
Nigeria is in extreme ‘data hunger’, with just 92.7 million active Internet users as at June 2015, but the surprising issue is that only 27.6 million of the users access the Internet are on 3G/4G networks.
“It shows that more than 65 million go on the Internet on 2G, which means that we are losing the broadband race by using 2G network, since 4G is the heart of broadband.
“Our story is that of pure 4G network, with high speed broadband and better technology. We see ourselves as offering Nigeria the key ingredient with the deployment of 4G. Mr Kamar Abass
NTEL will kick off its 4G LTE functionality before the end of 2015 in the 3 major cities in Nigeria, Lagos, Abuja (F.C.T) and Port Harcourt but that is not all as they will keep on expanding untill they cover the whole 36 states in Nigeria.
