Director of Sales, 9mobile, Tosin Olulana, gave the assurance while participating in a webinar, themed: “Enhancing Virtual Learning and the Challenges of Internet Penetration in Nigeria.”
In his presentation during the webinar organised by Leap Inspire Network and transform Global Network, Olulana noted that the world is fast-changing and that education must also evolve to adequately equip students.
He said recent transformation being witnessed in the education sector in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic calls for profound rethinking and repositioning of education in Nigeria.
Olulana further said as an innovative and youth-focused company, 9mobile would continue to provide superfast and affordable data for educational content creators and students.

This promo also demonstrates our philosophy that customers are at the core of our business, so we continue to prioritize them in our decisions.”
