Abegi. That mtn fibre is limited,no be every state and area.lasyly I used to do almost 5gig a day for 1k,but now it's almost 2500 for that same 5gig on Mtn.ubsee all these data plans are scrap. Even when I used spectranet for 3 good years.once it gets to 1am.network dey on leave,r go slow sotay to 1 gig movie for take 2days..maybe dem dey off dia server oh,I no just get,because they said unlimited cap as from 1am enter 6am,still i no fit anything .but still the 40gig did not last me abt 3 weeks,minus dstv oh.if they can't offer unlimited data no cap for 10k.they can rot in hell.bastar d thieves. Mtn are just bastard s. But soon I go vex go buy airtel router make I see how that 20k unlimited dey be. Dem go call me beg me,I go tear dia bandwidth

Seriously you mean the MTN fibre unlimited its a lie? Because I have made up my mind since last year to drop my 5gb box and go for the fibre since it's unlimited and thier network is most stable than other networks . Just that the major road can't be cracked to extend the cable to my house

Great100000:
Nigerian telecom s have seen data prices surge by up to 50% in 2025, forcing many to rethink their internet budgets. With MTN, Airtel, Glo, and 9mobile adjusting their prices—some increasing by as much as ₦70,000 for large data plans—finding the best deal has become crucial.

This guide compares the cheapest and best-value data plans across Nigeria’s major telecom providers, helping you find the most cost-effective option based on your budget and internet needs.

Budget Monthly Data Plans in Nigeria (Best for light s)

If you’re looking for affordable, entry-level data plans, here’s how MTN, Airtel, Glo, and 9mobile compare:

Best Budget Pick: Glo (3.9GB for ₦1,000) offers the lowest price per GB, but network quality varies. MTN and Airtel remain the most reliable in major cities.

Insight: “I use MTN’s 75GB plan for ₦20,000. It used to be ₦16,000, but I’m stuck with them because alternatives like Glo and Airtel don’t work well in my area.” – David, a growth marketer in Lagos.

Best Data Plans for Heavy s (Streaming, Remote Work, Business)

If you stream videos, work remotely, or run a business that relies on high-speed internet, these are the best options:

Best Heavy- Pick: Airtel (200GB for ₦20,000) provides the cheapest per GB cost, but check for network quality in your area before committing.

Insight: “I use MTN’s 112.5GB plan for ₦20,000. It used to be 150GB for ₦16,000 before the price hike. I tried Airtel, but it doesn’t work well in my area. MTN is the most consistent network, but their app is terrible.” – Daniel.

Best Weekly Data Plans for Short-Term s

If you don’t need a full month of data, weekly plans offer a flexible and often cheaper alternative.

Best Weekly Pick: 9mobile (7GB + 100MB for ₦1,500) gives the best value per GB but has limited coverage in some locations.

Insight: “I use Glo’s weekly 15GB plan for ₦2,500 because it’s better value for a heavy like me.” – Joseph

Best Unlimited Home WiFi Plans (No Fair Use Policy)

For households or small businesses that need non-stop internet, some providers offer truly unlimited plans. But watch out for hidden fair use policies (FUPs) that can throttle speeds after a certain usage.

Best Home WiFi Pick: FibreOne (25Mbps for ₦13,807, No Fair Use Policy) offers the best speed without limits.

Insight: “I’ve noticed that ‘unlimited’ plans often have a fair use policy, meaning after a certain limit, speeds drop drastically.” – Miriam.

For Office & Business Use

Businesses need reliable, high-capacity internet to handle daily operations, video conferencing, and cloud-based services. Here are some of the best plans for small, medium, and large businesses:

Category Best Pick
Best Budget Monthly Plan Glo 3.9GB for ₦1,000
Best Heavy- Plan Airtel 200GB for ₦20,000
Best Weekly Plan 9mobile 7GB + 100MB for ₦1,500
Best Unlimited Home WiFi FibreOne 25Mbps for ₦13,807 (No FUP)

I do Exhaust mine max 3months and the option is no longer there since this hike, haven't been able to sub the 100k since one week and 3days because I can't find the 100k for 1TB again..I was going for the MTN Fibre but unfortunately the Manhole they dug to run the cable didn't get to my side because of the major road

I’m on the MTN always on 45gb for 6k monthly plan
BUT i don’t know how much it will cost now after the price changes
I was also on this data plan. Just okay for me but it looks like MTN has suspended it in this new season of data price hike. Hope they bring it back.

Guys what happened to network cheats of those days, does it means that tech gurus hv all been employed by these network providers or they have japa? Let's do some theft-ings on their networks the way we r doing on powerholding companies. Afterwards na dem push us to d wall.

With MTN I usually get 15GB for 2K weekly plan prior to the upgrade but I recently did 18GB+ 7,000 for local calls @ 3,500
This helps me makes call since there’s no bonus anymore and also help surf the internet.

Until yesterday when I saw another 13GB for 2K weekly plan.


Total confusion Walahi ✌️✌️

Sigh... Adjustment to high cost of living continues.

During Pdp and Jonathan's era, it was constant gbege and protests.

Suddenly, everybody is constantly adjusting and suffering till some either roll over and die or kpai themselves.



Tinubu and APC are so fortunate to be ruling over such defeated and disunited people. cool
Very sad situation
