Key Takeaways:
Over the past two years, Nigeria's mobile network internet speed has undergone significant changes. As of April 2025, nearly half of the country's mobile subscribers (49.27%) use 4G services, which is nearly double the market share recorded in May 2023. In contrast, the share of 2G users dropped from over 58% to below 40%, indicating a major shift toward faster internet speeds and improved digital experiences across the country.
Meanwhile, 3G usage has also declined gradually, dropping to just 8.25% in April 2025. Although 5G adoption remains modest, reaching 2.81% by April 2025, its consistent upward trend signals growing acceptance and potential for future expansion.
