This new service is set to revolutionize internet access in the region, offering unlimited 1 Gbps speeds, significantly outpacing the regional average of 28 Mbps.
Service Availability and Expansion Plans
The FreeFiber service is currently available in Lagos and Port Harcourt in Nigeria, and Accra in Ghana, with plans to scale to multiple cities within the next 12 months. This expansion aims to bridge the digital divide and provide affordable, reliable internet to millions of Africans.

To encourage adoption, Tizeti is offering free installation and a complimentary first-month subscription for new users. This initiative is designed to make high-speed internet accessible to a broader audience, fostering digital inclusion and economic growth.
Additional Benefits and Features
The FreeFiber broadband service includes several additional benefits, such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone numbers and free calls to multiple countries with significant African populations, including the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, and Portugal. This feature empowers users to maintain seamless connections with clients, partners, and loved ones, regardless of geographical boundaries.
CEO’s Vision for the Future
Kendall Ananyi, CEO of Tizeti, emphasized the transformative potential of the new fiber service. “Fiber is the next generation of internet technology, offering unparalleled unlimited speed and reliability. With our advanced fiber infrastructure, we’re delivering speeds of over 1 Gbps, which are 50 times faster than existing offerings and 10 times faster than 5G or LEO satellite services.
