Talking about our slow/no band, its a national problem. Except we have leaders who are technologically inclined, I dont think we are going anywhere. When the problem of PHCN cannot be solved, talk less of internet access. Private individuals might strive to provide such services, but twill continue to be xpensive and unavailable/unaffodable for the common man(Nigerian). I agree with you on the Fibre optic thing: cable to solve the whole problem, but see, whether its Sat3, Sat4 or Sat-anything, if it is not managed well, whats the use? What we need is to manage what we have first, then talk of development.tokunbohttp://mypenmypaper.wordpress.com[email protected]
