The number of mobile broadband connections per 100 inhabitants in Nigeria was forecast to continuously increase between 2024 and 2029 by in total 9.5 connections (+20.77 percent). After the eighth consecutive increasing year, the mobile broadband penetration is estimated to reach 55.19 connections and therefore a new peak in 2029. Mobile broadband connections include cellular connections with a download speed of at least 256 kbit/s (without satellite or fixed-wireless connections). Cellular Internet-of-Things (IoT) or machine-to-machine (M2M) connections are excluded. The shown data are an excerpt of Statista's Key Market Indicators (KMI). The KMI are a collection of primary and secondary indicators on the macro-economic, demographic and technological environment in up to 150 countries and regions worldwide. All indicators are sourced from international and national statistical offices, trade associations and the trade press and they are processed to generate comparable data sets (see supplementary notes under details for more information).Find more key insights for the number of mobile broadband connections per 100 inhabitants in countries like Ivory Coast and Senegal.

Ethical clearance reference number: 213073579/2022/3Despite facing several challenges, water utility providers continue to use 'traditional, manual, or analogue water management solutions. This study explored the reasons why water institutions in Nigeria fail to adopt an IoT-based Smart Water Meter System (SWMS) to improve the efficiency of water management for a sustainable future. The study sought to identify factors influencing the adoption of a SWMS, people’s perceptions about adopting a SWMS, how institutions can adopt a SWMS as part of their water management method, the role of government in facilitating and engaging water institutions to use a SWMS, existing practical evidence on the adoption of a SWMS by water utilities, smart water application technologies for water management, and what framework can be developed to adopt a SWMS.Two main constructs (anonymity and confidentiality) were applied to protect the identities and interests of both the firm and the subjects. Therefore, a pseudonym (fake or false name) was used where possible throughout in the study to maintain the subjects’/institution’s anonymity.

In 2020, the number of online buyers in Nigeria was at about 76.7 million. Nigeria's total population amounts to 206 million and the internet penetration is at about 46 percent.
