Agency Report
Latest telecommunications industry data shows Nigeria’s active mobile subscriptions rose to 188.01 million in April, with Globacom accounting for 23.18 million active users.
The industry figures released by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) on Thursday indicate sustained growth in mobile access following the recent verification of subscriber data across networks.
The data also showed that teledensity increased to 86.73 per cent, while broadband subscriptions climbed to 120.68 million, reflecting growing demand for voice and internet services.
According to the report, Globacom’s subscriber base positions the operator for continued growth in data services, youth-focused offerings, small business connectivity and customer retention ahead of its 23rd anniversary in August.
The telecom operator has continued to target the mass market through affordable products, including its Talkmasta tariff plan and enhanced welcome bonuses for both new and existing subscribers.
Industry analysts noted that competition among telecom operators is increasingly shifting from SIM acquisition to active usage, network quality and broadband adoption.
They added that the NIN-SIM linkage exercise and the removal of inactive lines have made verified active subscribers a more reliable measure of market performance.
Analysts further said Globacom’s 23.18 million active subscribers provide a solid platform to deepen customer engagement, improve service quality and strengthen its position in Nigeria’s expanding broadband market.
