IS InternetSolutions Limited matters in Nigeria’s connectivity ecosystem
Nigeria’s telecoms industry is in the middle of a shift. Fibre is rolling out in big cities, and customers are asking for reliable, low-latency connections to support cloud platforms, online education and digital trade. Yet outside the urban core, the picture is different: power supply interruptions, the high price of fibre construction and patchy infrastructure continue to limit progress.
ISN has responded to this shifting environment with a change at the top. A new chief executive has been appointed, a move that underlines the company’s intention to keep pace with rapid market developments. With more local ISPs and international players entering Nigeria, expectations for reliable, integrated service are rising. The providers that can combine resilience with broad support are the ones most likely to retain customer confidence.
