Federal government of Nigeria has announced a reduction in data amount to N300. The information was made known by the Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communication Commission, Umar Danbatta, on Saturday. 




Mr. Umar Danbatta made the plan to reduce known while addressing journalists in Kano on Saturday. 


In his words, he said:


“Actually the cost has come down to N1000/gigabyte of data, but the government is saying that we should be targeting N390 in the next 3 to 5 years.
