US Funds Major Expansion Project For Nigeria
A United States agency has approved plans to deploy 1,500 mobile base stations across Nigeria and three other countries in a move aimed at improving telecom access and connectivity.
The project is expected to expand network coverage in underserved areas.
The deployment is part of a broader effort to strengthen digital infrastructure and support reliable communication services.
Nigeria is among the key beneficiaries due to its large population and growing demand for mobile connectivity.
Officials say the initiative will help improve access to voice and data services, especially in remote and rural communities where coverage remains weak.
The project is also expected to support economic activity and digital inclusion.
The rollout will be carried out in phases across the selected countries as part of the agency’s international development support programme.
Further details on timelines and locations are expected to be released in the coming months.
