About these data guides
Data plans in Nigeria change often: new bundles appear, old ones are renamed, and the same 1GB can cost very different amounts depending on the network, the validity and whether you buy through a USSD code, the network's app or a vendor.
These guides compare MTN, Airtel, Glo and T2 plans side by side, explain the codes to buy, share, borrow and check data, and cover the problems people meet most, like data that finishes too fast or does not work after a recharge.
Each comparison shows the date its prices were checked, so you can tell at a glance whether it is current.
