Good news! Airtel 4G LTE is now Live and Fully Active in Three States

After several months turning to years of anticipation, i'm pleased to inform you that Airtel Nigeria 4G LTE service is now live and active in three states as of the time of writing, which are: Ogun, Lagos and Ibadan. This started few weeks ago as couple of users started noticing the presence of Airtel 4G LTE on their devices.

4G LTE

Airtel is actually the latest telecom operator in Nigeria to release its 4G LTE service; MTN, Glo and 9Mobile did that a long time ago. Airtel 4G, like I earlier stated, is confirmed working in Ogun, Lagos and Ibadan. Hopefully, it will roll out to other major states and cities in the country like Abuja, Kano and Port Harcourt.

Airtel is running on Band 3 (1800MHz) which is compatible with almost all 4G enabled smartphones.

Simply go to the nearest Airtel office to you with your current (3G) SIM card and request for a SIM swap. Once successfully done, Airtel 4G LTE will be fully active on your line.

How to Check if Airtel 4G is Available in my State/Area

That's pretty easy! You can run a check to see if Airtel 4G LTE network is live in your area by going to Settings (in your 4G supported phone) >> Mobile networks >> Network operators >> Search networks. Wait for a few minutes, then a list of available networks will be shown on your screen.
