Good news for Nigerians as Google has decided that it will provide free Wi-Fi facilities in about 200 sites in 6 states in Nigeria from now till 2019. The 6 states that would have these faci3lities are Lagos, Oyo, Rivers, Enugu, Abuja and Kaduna.
It is estimated that within the time period of building these facilities about 10 million Nigerians will benefit. The project is handled in partnership with 21st Century, a leading Internet Service Provider in Lagos. On Wednesday, four Google stations went live at the local airport, Landmark, The palms and Ikeja City Mall.
This initiative by Google has been carried out also in other countries like Thailand, India, Indonesia and Mexico.
These Google stations allow Google partners to provide Wi-Fi hotspots that are available to the public. Nigeria was chosen as part of the countries to enjoy these benefits because Google intends to target countries where the next-billion internet users are set to come from.
The Wi-Fi hotspots are also fortified so that there are no security breaches.
