Mobile internet has become ubiquitous in today’s time. However, mobile data rates vary widely. Many of the countries with the cheapest mobile data fall roughly into one of two categories. Some have excellent mobile and fixed broadband infrastructure and so providers are able to offer large amounts of data, which brings down the price per gigabyte. Others with less advanced broadband networks are heavily reliant on mobile data and the economy dictates that prices must be low, as that’s what people can afford.
Here are the top 10 countries with the most cheapest mobile data in Africa.
