Tizeti, an internet service provider, has launched its FreeFiber broadband service in Nigeria and Ghana, extending its solar-powered internet solutions across West Africa.
The company disclosed the launch in a statement on Saturday, highlighting the move as a major step in improving regional internet connectivity.
The service is available in Lagos and Port Harcourt in Nigeria and Accra in Ghana, with plans to expand to additional cities within the next year.
According to Tizeti, FreeFiber broadband delivers speeds exceeding 1Gbps, far surpassing the regional average of 28Mbps.
The company noted that new users would receive free installation and a complimentary first-month subscription.
Tizeti stated that the new service aligns with its mission to bridge the digital divide in Africa by providing affordable and reliable internet to millions.
According to Chief Executive Officer of Tizeti, Kendall Ananyi, the new fibre service represents the future of internet connectivity.
“Fibre is the next generation of internet technology, offering unparalleled unlimited speed and reliability.
With our advanced fibre infrastructure, we’re delivering speeds of over 1Gbps, which are 50 times faster than existing offerings and 10 times faster than 5G or LEO satellite services.
“This leap forward enables seamless streaming, ultra-fast downloads, and improved online interactions, providing users with a truly transformative internet experience,” said Ananyi.
The launch also includes a unique referral programme, where customers can enjoy free setup and subscription for the first five months by referring new users who currently lack access to Tizeti’s services.
The Chief Operating Officer, Ifeanyi Okonkwo, emphasised this commitment, stating, “This initiative is more than just fast internet. It’s about empowering communities, fostering innovation, and enabling people to thrive in a digitally connected world.
“Our free fibre service will revolutionise how people, homes, and businesses in West Africa access the internet, creating new opportunities for education, communication, and commerce.”
