XPN Records 100% Surge as Nigeria’s Internet Traffic Hits 2.3Tbps - Tech | Business | Economy

▤ Summary

Nigeria’s local internet traffic has crossed 2.3Tbps, doubling in less than a year and marking a major milestone for the country’s digital infrastructure. IXPN says more than 135 networks now interconnect through the exchange, including ISPs, mobile operators, fintech firms, cloud providers, and CDNs. The shift is reducing latency, lowering bandwidth costs, and keeping more traffic inside the country instead of routing it overseas. The growth also points to rising demand for cloud services, AI applications, video streaming, 5G, and digital financial services, which should keep driving infrastructure investment.
