Telecom consumers lament tariff hike, poor network, says they only know how to drain data’
Some telecommunication services consumers in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT have urged Mobile Network Operators to improve their services to match the recent hike in their tariffs.
They made the call in separate interviews with NAN on Monday in Abuja.
The subscribers said despite the increase in subscription rates mobile networks could remain epileptic for hours.
The only thing they know is to drain data without any good service delivery. I feel like crying because of a problematic network. I have been receiving server errors since morning.
“To even download and watch a video sent to me since, takes me almost one whole day. “I wonder if members of staff of the service providers are enjoying the service they render to us.
“We cannot make calls, access the internet or even receive calls,’’ he said.
According to him, unfortunately, the network providers put up some of the best adverts about their products and services which they cannot meet.
Mr Victor James, another subscriber said he had enough data but was not able to use it to his satisfaction.
“Why does their data plan not reflect immediately when you buy data? Sometimes it takes as much as 24 hours to reflect.
I am tired of this. The network is really bad. I have enough data but I cannot use it the way I want.
“I hope the issues get resolved as soon as possible so that I can access my data without further delay,” he said.
However, Ms Josephine Tanko, told NAN that she had no problems with her network providers.
“It is fast and reliable. I think it is the network that gives the best internet speed and quality.
“It will always be my best that is why I will always choose it over any other network,” she said.
She called on networks that did not meet their subscriber’s expectations to ensure that they improved their services.
President Bola Tinubu has approved a one-year extension for the Comptroller-General of the Nigeria Customs Service, Bashir Adewale Adeniyi. Originally set to end in August 2025, his tenure will now continue until August 2026.
According to a statement signed by Special Adviser Bayo Onanuga, the extension aims to give Mr. Adeniyi the opportunity to consolidate key reforms and oversee the completion of major initiatives, including the modernisation of Customs operations, the National Single Window Project, and Nigeria’s obligations under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
President Tinubu commended Adeniyi’s leadership and expressed confidence that the extension would bolster trade facilitation, boost revenue generation, and enhance border security.
