TikTok influencer, Kobe Boujee has bemoaned the high cost of internet data from the service provider, MTN in Ghana than it is in Nigeria.
He believes service providers must ensure the cost of their services are same across board in all areas they operate but the case is different with MTN.
In a recorded TikTok session, he stated, “I am trying to understand the difference between the MTN in Ghana and the MTN in Nigeria, like what’s the difference. If not for today I never knew the MTN data bundle in Ghana is five times the price of even more than that of Nigeria,” he stated.
His rant comes after he saw on social media Nigerians were complaining about the cost of MTN internet data in their country.
“I just woke up and saw news of Nigerians complaining about their data bundle and I am like but this dier ei be normal. The bundles their enjoying is not even just4u bundles, whils we have been paying more. We pay about Ghc350cedis for 92 gig of data when the same amount converted to naira is like 35,000 naira and you can use it to buy a new shoe,” he added.
His post has generated a number of comments and discussions on social media.

gambo012 – Ghana is more expensive than Nigeria but people don’t really know about that

Basit_Jibreal – Naa it’s all about the government. They tax them more in Ghana so their service is expensive here
Vicksangel – E be like say this account you no like am again ba
Great OG – how is internet in Ghana better than that in Nigeria. Nigeria has 5G network ( since 2021) Ghana don’t have 5G
Oryiman – Ghana cedis is a weak currency that’s why for about the exchange rate. take out three zeros from the conversion
ShopThePinkEdit – But if I send you 1k now, it can take you through 2 months
Adambibi – I think it’s the population size, cos the bigger the population the more you get enough customers. Even DSTV subscription is cheaper in Nigeria than Ghana
KINGwax – Ghana currency has low economic value. Removing 4-zeros doesn’t make it a stronger currency, just to deceive their citizens with a high exchange rate. The commodity in Ghana is still very expensive.
sam – This was what Afenyo Markins was supposed to ask Sam George but he was asking unnecessary questions
Magnificent Tay – funny enough Ghana has far worse Internet speed. I just got back from Nigeria recently and I never for once lack slow internet the moment I come Ghana the network be struggling despite staying in a prime area in Accra
