History & Growth
Airtel Nigeria’s journey began in 2001 when it was launched as Econet Wireless Nigeria. Over the years, the company has undergone several rebranding and ownership changes, becoming V-Mobile, Celtel, Zain, and finally Airtel Nigeria in 2010 after Bharti Airtel, one of the world’s leading telecommunications companies, acquired Zain’s African operations.
Since then, Airtel Nigeria has experienced significant growth, expanding its network coverage and customer base. The company has invested heavily in infrastructure and technology, rolling out 3G and 4G services across the country to provide high-speed internet and improved connectivity to its customers.
