When Is Airtel NG Going To Launch Their Own 4G LTE Network?

This is a question I know I can't reply yet but sooner or later answers will come. I’ve watched the 4G LTE networks come into Nigerian technology and in no time, 3G will be history just like the way CD player is now forgotten.



MTN , ETISALAT & GLO Network respectively launched their own 4G network weeks ago and I am confident to tell you that the 3 networking are hyping when you and I tactically know that 75% of cities in Nigeria are not yet to experience 4G network. To them, it is 4G… but to us, speed is nothing compared to Flash but can be compared to a popular traffic jam/gridlock in Lagos.


As large a Lagos is, Etisalat 4G hasn’t occupied up to 80% of Lagos State… so I wonder where Etisalat 4G network is perfectly operating. I know with time, they’ll balance up but we need something to survive the winter.

A guy of mine went to Glo office two days ago and to his surprise, the girl who attended to him was using MTN 4G to browse… That is to tell you that Glo may be the grandmaster of data, but when it comes to 4G speed, I guess they know where they belong.


I’ve always been a great fan of Airtel network because of the cool sensational speed experienced when browsing the internet. What some telecom called 4G network is Airtel 3G network.


Unfortunately, it seems the gods of the network haven't smile on Airtel NG yet, so they looked abandoned and neglected in a lonely planet. I keep wondering when will Airtel NG finally launch their 4G LTE in Nigeria, where will other networks find themselves.


The question is does Airtel even have the layouts to launch 4G in Nigeria? If at all they have plans to launch, how soon…?


By the way, those of you still using
Airtel weekend plans , do you noticed you can now automatically carry over unused data?
