Updated List Of States in Nigeria With Good 4G LTE Coverage For All Networks

It's no news that all telcom operators in Nigeria has released 4G LTE network, which is a mobile communications standard intended to replace 3G, allowing wireless Internet access at a much higher speed. I think Smile network started this 4G trend in Nigeria, and seeing how it was welcomed by the public, other networks followed suit.

Now, MTN, Glo, 9mobile(etisalat), Airtel and other internet service providers (ISP) like Smile, Spectranet, and Swift 4G also boasts of having 4G network. Tough you must buy a router, mifi, modern or 4G LTE supported device from some of the services mentioned above, and make sure the band of the device corresponds with that of your ISP.

One major set-back is the slow and poor coverage of 4G LTE in Nigeria. While some states are still struggling to use 3G network, some has already being covered with 4G LTE network from several operators in the country.

As a reference book for buying a 4G SIM card, Mifi or Dongle, this post shows the states in Nigeria that has 4G network coverage from MTN-Visafone, Ntel, Glo, 9mobile, Smile 4G and others
