Nigeria has one of the world’s largest mobile subscriber markets and the availability of more low-cost smartphones is also fuelling growth in data traffic.

Smartphone shipments to Nigeria soared 135 percent year-on-year (y/y) in 2014, spurred by the increased availability of low-cost models and dual-SIM devices according to Q4 2014 Handsets Tracker released by International Data Corporation (IDC).
