#jaiyeorie Elon Musk's Starlink's entry into the Nigerian telecoms sector is expected to spark a fresh wave of competition among the country's telecommunications service providers.
Customers who are now subscribed to internet service from MTN, Globacom, Airtel, 9mobile, and over 200 Internet Service Providers (ISPs) previously licensed by the Nigerian Communications Commission would have to compete with the new entrant (NCC).
According to Nairametrics, Starlink has secured two licenses from the NCC, including an International Gateway license and an ISP license.
With the ISP license, Starlink will compete with Nigeria's main ISPs, including Spectranet, FibreOne, Tizeti, and iPNX, as well as mobile network operators, who now account for the majority of internet users in the country.
Although Starlink will have an advantage over other service providers in that it will supply its service via satellite, which can be accessible from everywhere in the country, the company's sustainability will still be determined by its price competitiveness.
