MTN Nigeria Communications PLC has announced the launch of home broadband services to accelerate broadband penetration in alignment with the Federal Government’s plan to achieve over 70% broadband penetration by 2025.

With this launch, MTN home broadband services will be available to millions of Nigerian households across the country, the telco said in a statement yesterday.

With over 200 million people, Nigeria currently boasts of approximately 44.3% internet connectivity, whereas other African countries, such as South Africa, Egypt, and Kenya, are at 68, 74, and 48% internet penetration, respectively.

Global technology statistics closely link internet connectivity to sustainable economic growth rates. On average, the internet accounts for almost 4% of gross domestic product (GDP) across the large economies and make up 70% of global GDP.

UNICEF also projects that nations with low broadband connectivity have the potential to realise up to 20% GDP growth by connecting schools to the internet.

MTN currently connects over 70 million Nigerians (over 7% 4G population and 89.8% coverage nationwide). With MTN’s Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) and the latest Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) Home Broadband services, millions of Nigerian households, with approximately 50% located in rural areas, will have access to reliable and ultra-fast broadband services to enjoy unlimited data plans.
