Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) in the country are engaged in a heated race to deploy broadband fibre infrastructure in unserved and underserved parts of Lagos, the commercial nerve-centre of Nigeria, BusinessDay says.

MTN, Airtel, Etisalat and Globacom have all begun massive fibre infrastructure deployments across the length and breadth of the state with a view to improving the quality of broadband internet and telecommunications services and garnering more revenue.

Lagos is a huge lure for the operators because it has a population of 17.5 million, of the nation’s total of 160 million, according to 2006 census figures. With the nation’s teledensity standing at 93.41 percent as at June 2014, Lagos poses a big carrot for telcos, experts say.
