@brix25: Mubadala Devt. Co. of UAE was offered a unified access service licence for $400m.
The issue is that the COO of one of the GSM networks( speaking the mind of his competitors) was expecting the 3G licence to be given to the existing networks at little or no cost to compensate them for their ''heavy investment'' in the communications sector. Let's see how this plays out.

It's going to be ridiculous if the existing players have to say exorbitant fees for 3G licences when it's in Nigeria's interest to ease access to information technology...they're looking for a quick buck in the short term but better technologies will improve Nigeria's competitiveness in the long run.

adrusa: gone are the days of effective spin doctors in our govt that could tell us the sky is red and we'd agree. in the past, harsh action would have been taken on the insurgency in the delta and the bad news would be covered up. now inaction is followed by acclaims of peace and tranquility. its a shame. we dont see any diplomacy happening. we dont see any development.

brix: the initial money the collected for gsm licences went into thin airand it gave the companies carte blanche to make us pay thru the nose. any company coming in now really must of had its feasibility studies checked out.

Brix nothing good will ever come out of corrupt officials. Their agenda is to fatten their wallets and suck us dry. We will always remain technologically behind. But nigeria will be great again.

I'm wondering why we are all so excited about 3g. Even gprs most of us could not afford. Wont we need an arm and a leg to use 3g?
