12 million litres per month! 12mn!.
Thats the kind of figure the likes of Celtel Nigeria will be consuming by the end of the year due to network expansion.
12, 000, 000 X 12 = 144mn litres per annum, man the world must have a huge reserve of those things.
The pepper (money) part of things now...
144 000 000 X 66 = crazy figure per annum. People in Naija have learnt to transact in dollars now but this figure is still massive.
Now to this interesting piece alluded to Bayo Ligali,
"Today, we operate four networks instead of one: GSM Network (which is indeed our core line of business); a security network; a power (electricity) network and a transmission network. "
The security network, Celtel has about 5000 security operatives guiding installations nationwide, rightly described as more than 8 batallions. Crime rate had been on the rise in the last 8 months and mostly attributed to the lions and termites who were armed and cashed during the last elections and now still have the arms and need to maintain the cash.
I simply can't help but feel we've been wondering purbling for the last 8 years in Nigeria.
