Nigerian startup Tizeti, solar-based internet and voice service provider, is set to expand its operations within Nigeria and Ghana, and into neighbouring Ivory Coast and Togo, in addition to mulling listing its Nigerian subsidiary. We currently have over 3,884 hotspot locations and built one tower every month since we started, with 2.8 million users in Nigeria,” he said. Today, Tizeti delivers over 190TBPS of data a day, which is about 20 per cent of what Airtel, the second largest telco with coverage in 36 Nigerian states, delivers. It is the leading fixed internet service provider by users and active users in Nigeria today. Internet users in Africa are still about 26 per cent of the total population, with almost 900 million people unconnected.
