Remember call credit use to have Validity period of 7 days, untill shouting shouting shouting, the validity was removed and placed only on bonus credit.

We are not shouting about data validity period because most people feel they can and do exhaust it within that 30 (or 33 on 9mobile) day validity period, but most times some data still get wiped off because of validity expiration.

The west leading the pace. West side has always been the best side. Thought some folks said there is hunger in the west.

this cant drop but can take you higher

It's simple, u buy data when ur done eating
Hunger in the land

south-west is the richest,most populated and most industrialised region in nigeria... all statistics point in that direction
