The data war is becoming interesting. All the major networks in Nigeria have been giving us cheap data plans back-to-back. Just recently, Airtel made 6GB available for 1500 Naira, and almost all subscribers are eligible for the offer.

Now, MTN is here with yet another cheaper data plan that gives you 1GB for just 100 Naira. This data plan has been designed for selected customers. which means everyone is not eligible for this plan.

In this post, I’ll show you how to activate MTN 1GB for 100 Naira and also how to check if your MTN sim is eligible or not.
