COVID-19: Reduce Data Charges, Nigerians Rage

We don't want "double data" nonsense.

Same thing they do with double credit and increase the call rates and before you know it's your credit is gone.

Simply reduce the cost of dat, show Nigerians that you're in solidarity with them this trying period.#CutDataPrices

With the Lockdown of Lagos, Abuja and Ogun state:

– Electric bill for the month of April should be waived.
– Nigerians in these states should receive a weekly wage
– Food items should be made available.
– One month free dstv subscription
– #CutDataPrices during this period!

In the UK,
Vodafone gives 30 days FREE mobile data to put a smile on faces of British people during this Coronavirus period.

Nigerians are not even asking for free data. They are only asking for affordable data.

Tag your telecom company.
Ask them to #CutDataPrices now.

Only in Nigeria you’ll do an unlimited data bundle but it still comes with a limit ??‍♂️ #CutDataPrices

Nigerian telecom companies:
“Be safe”

Every morning,
You send millions of Nigerians sms of “be safe”. Be safe how?

Pls cut data prices.
We can use that data to access internet and learn about the virus.

Stop sending Nigerians useless SMSes.#CutDataPrices if you are serious.

This is another day to remind d Government & internet service providers to #MakeDataCheap

We have been self isolating for 2weeks & we are going on for another 2wks.

Data price needs to drop so pple can comfortably afford it this season.

Hear our plea.

Please #CutDataPrices

It is very important for service providers to either give free data now or #CutDataPrices . Also important for DSTV to "do quarantine for us " by giving everyone free DSTV and GOTV in April or cut prices. After all DSTV subscription is only expensive because of sports channels.

People need data to stay online.
People need data to contact family.
People need data to follow news.
People need data to hear from NCDC.

It is not fair to make people pay same prices for data in the middle of a pandemic.

Dear telecom companies,
Pls #CutDataPrices

Please ??

Telecoms companies should be more responsible at this time.
