Their message was crisp and clear–Nigerians will soon be forced to pay more for data by the Muhammadu Buhari administration.

The new data price regime will be rolled out on December 1, 2016, they announced grimly.

“Under the new data price regime, the NCC (Nigeria Communications Commission) has directed all telecom operators in the country to review their current data prices to align with the new price floor and implement same by the 1st of December 2016, while defaulters risk having sanctions imposed on them”, one CEO (Chief Executive Officer) explained.
