Airtel Nigeria has revised its data prices and implemented tariff adjustments, according to details published on its website on Monday.
The price revision affects various data bundles and reflects ongoing industry concerns over rising operational costs. While Airtel has yet to release an official statement, the adjustment highlights the broader push among telecom operators for tariff reviews to mitigate the impact of inflation and forex fluctuations.
In addition to adjusting data prices, Airtel, which has over 56 million subscribers, also increased voice call tariffs.
