Same here. @greenrun. I can't view, @dragonslayer109's images. Anyway, the message of the post is clear. There is urgent need to address the issue of cost of internet in Nigeria and Africa. Personally, I would be very frustrated, if I cannot access unlimited internet with good speed & moderate price that I am now used to.
When I travelled to Durban for the Christmas holiday of 2013/2014,I enjoyed free wifi in my uncle's house. Of course, my uncle pays all the bills.
Hopefully, very soon all these challenges with data in Africa would be addressed.
Edited
Should be sorted now.
@maryfavour I was thinking it was only me, didn't know its general. Good afternoon, it's a sunny day here.
@greenrun. I'm glad that @dragonslayer109 has sorted out the issue of images that were not showing.
I did a little analysis from the table above - Cheapest 1GB prepaid data prices in 6 large African markets (USD). What was my discovery? It's evident that from Q1 2016 to Q2 2017, there was about 61%, 61%, 41%, 39% reduction in cost for data subscription in Egypt (North Africa), Tanzania (East Africa), Ghana & Nigeria (West Africa) respectively. There was no significant reduction in data cost in Kenya (East Africa). Clearly, South Africa's data cost is increasing. In fact, data cost increased by about 20% from the data presented by @dragonslayer109 in the post.
@maryfavour for @redfishpillar.
In addition to this extravagant charges, the speed still crawls-chug a lug internet. oooooh Africa!
