Nigeria's biggest Telecommunication Companies, MTN and Airtel, have made known the increase in data plan prices to subscribers. With about 10 per cent increase in prices for their internet data services.
The increase was made public by MTN(@MTN180) and Airtel(@AirtelNigeria) on their verified Twitter pages.
In March 2020, the Federal Government signed the Nigerian national broadband plan 2020-2025 designed to deliver data download speeds across Nigeria with effective coverage available to at least 90 percent of the population by 2025 at a price not more than N390 per 1GB of data.
The Government's plan to achieve a 90% broadband penetration by 2025 may be impeded by the recent hike in data prices by telecom companies.

This isn’t about usage, I said I was charged 3,300 instead of 3,000 for 10GB data plan
Y'ello. Apologies for the the data price review. Please note that there has been a revamp in prices of some MTN data plans. You may visit mtn.ng/personal/data/ for more information on MTN data plans. Thank you. ~AO
It was just a matter of time. Things are expensive & they don't get usd at CBN rate
