INTERNET DATA IS VERY EXPENSIVE IN AFRICA

Hi my fellow pal,it been a great day today with me here but what about you. I would have love to always be on steemit platform 24/7 learning and interacting all they along,but two things serve as an obstacle to it which are very common in Africa countries and most especially Nigeria my beloved country. This two common factors are:

√ Power failure

√ High Cost of Data

It is a common thing in my country here in most state you see people having their generator set due to power failure most especially this common one called (I pass my neighbor) if you are from Africa to be precise from Nigerian you will understand what am talking about.

The high cost of Data is my major concern. With the coming of this social network which have help communication easy and interaction on social network possible, but we are still face with the following which is a hindrance and a set back to the growth of Africa nation.

Am not a one sided coin,but when I talk about your good,I also show you your weakness, so as to help you grow

The feud between the network provider and it subscribers have been a long one,which proper attention has to be taken into for proper consideration. The Africa country as a whole has given a lot to this network provider, but have gain little from them in return. This have resolve to many looking for loopholes to steal from them.

THE ARRIVAL OF SOCIAL NETWORK

I can still remembered vividly when café just arrived in my region. I will have to transport to the nearest cafe to browser on latest sport invent,check my mail and to have a chat on social network as at then,which cost me #200 for 30minute to browser and #250 for an hour then. This kept going until some social bundle surface and network provider started giving out mb after recharging a minimum of #100,which stop me from going to cafe.

**THE RIVAL AND COMPETITION **

It was MTN that started giving out mb as a network provider back then. When you recharge #100 airtime you will be given 5mb for browsing for good seven(7) days but you have to be on MTN pulse. People start using this plan to get mb to chat and interact on social network, which led to more social media created e.g 2go,Eskimi,badoo,Facebook etc. They were many but this are the one I can remembered as at now. This kept on going until the arrival of # ETISALATE which is now know as 9ja MOBILE,came and was giving out 15mb for recharging #200,wow this was great I start seeing my friends spend time on social media than I do,I search out the secret to discovered it was another new network. I migrated to Etisate just to enjoy all this benefit. All this mess and embarrassment are what we are facing from this network provider and giving out peanut in return. Many big companies and business firm spend a huge amount of money when it comes to Internet area. Now the less you can get your subscription on this network varies:

√ AIRTEL 1gb = #1000 for one month

√ GLO 1gb=#100 for one month

√ MTN 1gb=#1000 for one month

√ 9ja mobile 1gb= #1200 for one month

Here most especially in Africa, we are face with so many challenges from this indigenous and foreign network provider, ranging from:

1. High cost of call rate ( both to local and foreign call)

2. High cost of Data

3. Bad network ( most area lack 3g network not to talk of 4g)

This has led to so many people looking for way to lay their hands on how to rob this network provider so as to get some tangible things from them. Many has resolved their faith in learning:

√ IMEL Tweaking

√ Wifi Hacking

√ Cheat creating ( using vpn,stack,some uc handler etc)

Most people love streaming online using their mobile phones and PC,like the football lover,but the high cost will be a hindrance. Good writers are out there,but are not privilege because of high cost of data to stay online like steemit which consume a lot of data. Some are made night watcher because they stay cool all the night from 12am - 5am not sleeping like someone hit with insomnia just because to subscriber for night plan on this network cost which offer less amount to subscriber like #200 for 1g or 500 mb as the case may be,what a punishment from this people.

I do come across many data bundle seller who sell at low cost than this network provider. Check my pic below to understand it. Although most of them are scammers be wise.

I think it will be better contest not only to win SBD or STEEM are to be organized but also on how to win social bundle to help people. Thanks to @destinysaid did a writing contest and gave the winner 3g for being the winner of the contest,such a thing can also be organized on this platform to help many minnows to grow on the platform.

All thanks to the organizer of this contest @drangonlayer and to all Nigeria curators out there shout out to you all,and to my boss also @ogochukwu on mentorship class on discord and to the Airhawk- project am happy to be part of you people on telegram channel. Love you all. One united Africa we stand. Your comment will be appreciated. Thanks
