Most of these datas are flawed

If am browsing in Bayesla, my IP address normally shows port Harcourt
If am in Niger state, it will show Abuja
If am In uyo it will still show pH
Sometimes you might be in Edo and it will indicate that you are somewhere around Lagos or ibandan,
If you're browsing in zaira
It will show Kano

But outside country is not like that
If you are in Huston texas it will show Huston taxes,
Every city is equally indicated

Richtaiwo:
Expect some jaundiced explanation on why some states don't come close to the figures.

Armaggedon:
NBS has to give us explanations first on how Ogun has ACTIVE internet and voice subscribers that is DOUBLE of it's population. So, the data itself is jaundiced.

I noticed it while I was at elemebiri in Bayelsa State some years back . My IP shows PH or Omoku

Nigercity:


Seems like internet activities all over many part of South South/ south east
Is ascribe to rivers state
While those in some part of Delta/ Edo/ondo is ascribed to oyo
Then Nasssawra,kogi,niger e.t.c Abuja

Those trying to gloat over this
Are uneducated about how this things works

As usual the see everything as agenda

For ogun to have more internet subscribtion that is more than twice above it population ahead of Kano,oyo and Delta/Edo/ rivers (the headquarters of internet fraud in Nigeria) should tell you more

I don't think this is about IP addresses. They are very few internet providers/telecoms in Nigeria. The data can easily be gotten from them. If I need update on number of my customers, active or not, I only need to switch on my pc and get it in less than 5 minutes. Those masts you see mounted all around you dont just stand there. They will give you number of internet users connecting through them per time and it's not so difficult at all.

kayusely70:
You're very much in order!

Golan007:

What is true is that Lagos state is enabling environment for businesses borne about by the desire of its citizens to work and create.

This extends to the government of the state because living in the state imbibed a culture.
