The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has disclosed that the country’s mobile internet subscribers rose to 154.28 million in December 2022 – a 37 percent increase in eight years.<\/p>\n

Of the total figure, mobile (GSM) accounted for 154.27 million subscribers \u2014 leaving fixed wire, and VoIP for the remaining subscribers<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the NCC data, the total number of active mobile internet subscribers increased to 154.28 million at the end of December 2022 \u2014 from 97.03 million\u00a0<\/span>recorded in December 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n

By implication, this means that the country\u2019s mobile internet subscribers increased by 57.24 million within the last eight years.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to TheCable index analysis in the period under review, all mobile networks recorded an increase in internet subscriptions \u2014 except 9mobile.<\/p>\n

9mobile, on the other hand, lost 10.75 internet subscribers, dropping from 15.18 million in December 2015 to 4.43 million in December 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

The NCC industry data also showed that the contribution of the telecoms<\/a> industry to GDP increased from 8.50 percent in 2015 to 12.85 percent in Q3 2022.<\/p>\n

It added that the country\u2019s teledensity also increased from 107.87 percent in December 2015 to 116.60 percent in December 2022.<\/p>\n

Teledensity is calculated by the number of fixed (landline) telephone connections per 100 people in a specific geographic area, based on a population estimate of 190 million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
