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.

In a decisive move to end the protracted land dispute between the Isinigbo and Igoba communities in Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State, Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa has approved the constitution of an Arbitration Committee to mediate the conflict and prevent further breakdown of law and order.
The committee is chaired by the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Dr. Olukayode Ajulo, SAN, OON, expert in conflict resolution and a Fellow of the prestigious Chartered Institute of Arbitratirs in the United Kingdom.
The Governor’s action aligns with a resolution of the Ondo State House of Assembly and underscores his administration’s commitment to peace, security, and communal harmony across the state.
The land dispute between Isinigbo and Igoba has lingered for years, leading to the loss of lives and the destruction of property worth millions of naira.
The unrest has also strained social relations and disrupted the peaceful coexistence of residents in the affected communities.
Governor Aiyedatiwa’s intervention is seen as a bold step toward restoring order and ensuring long-term stability.
The committee’s mandate includes identifying the root and immediate causes of the conflict, key actors involved, and facilitating peaceful dialogue between stakeholders.
Other members of the committee include Hon. Ololade Gbegudu, representing Okitipupa Constituency II in the State House of Assembly; Commissioner of Police, Ondo State Command, CP Wilson Afolabi; Ondo State Surveyor-General, Surv. Idowu Owolabi; and Mr. F.O. Adaramola, Secretary of the Ondo State Boundary Commission, who will serve as secretary of the committee.
According to the appointment letter signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Dr. Taiwo Fasoranti, the committee is also expected to recommend actionable solutions to the boundary issues and propose strategic policies to prevent similar conflicts in other parts of the state.
The committee has been given a three-month timeline to complete its assignment and submit its report to the Deputy Governor, His Excellency Olayide Owolabi Adelami, for further action.
