Internet consumption in Nigeria dropped slightly following a 50 per cent increase in telecom tariffs approved in January.

Data from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) shows that usage declined from a record 1 million terabytes (TB) in January to 893,054.80 TB in February

On 20 January 2025, the NCC approved a 50 per cent increase in calls, data, and SMS tariffs after a decade-long push by telecom operators for price adjustments due to harsh economic conditions. This raised the floor price of calls to ₦9.6 per minute from ₦6.40, the cost of SMS to ₦6 from ₦4, and the cost of 1GB of data to ₦431.25 from ₦287.5.
