    Nigeria is answering the telecoms market most controversial question sparked by claims that 5G mobile technology caused the deadly Coronavirus outbreak.

    Home to a booming telecoms market, Nigeria’s active phone connections was 187,435,821 (98.19%) and Internet users were 132,013,241 by February, according to official figures.

    Meanwhile, claims that Coronavirus otherwise known as COVID-19 and 5G mobile technology are linked are misleading, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), which regulates the telecoms industry says.
