Nigerian subscribers have lambasted Nigeria’s top telecommunications company, Globacom Limited, popularly called Glo and founded by businessman Mike Adenuga, hitting it hard with intense criticism over its persistent poor voice and data network services performance, TheConscience Nigeria reports.
Customers in tweets monitored by this online newspaper lamented over what they termed outrageous and unstable network on the eve of 2020 Eid-el-Kabir and described GLO as ‘the most useless service provider on earth.”
According to some angry customers, it is awful that the network provider would hype unrealistic promotion of data on cable networks instead of improving voice service to its teeming consumers.
Below are tweets monitored:

Glo was founded on 29 August 2003 by Nigerian businessman Mike Adenuga, employing over 3,500 people worldwide. It has over 45 million subscribers (December 2018), making it the second largest network operator in Nigeria.
In 2011, GLO became the first telecommunication company to build an $800 million high-capacity fibre-optic cable known as Glo-1, a submarine cable from the United Kingdom to Nigeria.
Despite its infrastructure investment claims, subscribers appear persistently dissatisfied with its persistent poor services.
