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.

IGP Disu orders officers to shoot anyone carrying illegal firearms
Disu explained that the directive was backed by Force Order 237, which empowers police officers to respond immediately to armed threats without waiting for approval from superior officers.
The Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, has directed police officers across the country to shoot on sight anyone found carrying illegal firearms, as part of intensified efforts to curb insecurity.
Disu issued the directive on Friday during a stakeholders’ meeting at the Government House in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, saying the move followed President Bola Tinubu’s instruction that the lingering security crisis in the state must be brought to an end.
The police chief maintained that only authorised security personnel are legally permitted to carry firearms, warning that law enforcement agencies would no longer tolerate the unlawful possession of weapons.
” You cannot move around freely carrying arms as if there is no law and order in this country. It will not be tolerated,” he said.
Disu explained that the directive was backed by Force Order 237, which empowers police officers to respond immediately to armed threats without waiting for approval from superior officers.
