New Report Talks Wireless, VOIP in Nigeria

Source: www.voip-news.com

There is a new report from Pyramid Research that highlights the telecom market in Nigeria. Turns out that Nigeria has the largest mobile telecom market in all of Africa and it’s expected to keep growing over the next five years.

“The bulk of service revenue will continue to come from mobile, which will generate 83 percent of total service revenue over the next five years,” said Yejide Onabule, analyst at Pyramid Research and author of the report. “Suppliers of mobile network technologies are likely to benefit from more aggressive rollouts of mobile voice and data services, and demand for CDMA and GSM base stations is expected to remain strong over the next several years.”

The report also looks at WiMAX, IPTV and VoIP, to survey their spread and reach.
