One of the nation’s leading telecoms network,
Globacom, has once again emerged the fastest
growing network in terms of acquisition of
internet subscribers in Nigeria’s
telecommunications industry. This was according to the report of the third
quarter of 2015 just released on the Nigerian
Communications Commission, NCC, website.
The report indicated that Globacom gained the
highest number of internet users in September
2015 with over a million new internet users on
its network. NCC indicated that Globacom had 21,896,229
internet users on its network as at the end of
September, up from 20,765,379 data users in
August. The figure showed an addition of
1,130,850 new internet subscribers. Globacom’s figure was higher than the total
number of new internet users who joined the
three other major telecom operators, MTN,
Airtel and Etisalat. The three recorded a
combined total of 716,450 new internet
subscribers in September.
MTN placed second by recording additional
423,448 new internet users on its network.
Airtel placed third with 235,941 new
subscribers, while Etisalat recorded the least
number of new internet users in the industry
with additional 57,061 new data subscribers joining the network in September. For several months, Globacom has led the race
for the acquisition of new internet users in the
market.
The network added 1,434,830 data users last
August, while MTN recorded 309,960 and
Etisalat 147,149 new internet surfers. Airtel on
its part had a drop of 110,838. The steady growth in the number of data
subscribers on the Globacom network is said
to be a fall-out of the improved data services
which followed the networks improvement
exercise being carried out by the company.
