Osun state officially cancels right-of-way fees, allowing telecom companies and internet providers to lay fibre optic cables for free.
Ademola Adeleke, the governor of Osun state, disclosed the cancellation of ROW fees today as part of a digital economy policy.

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, there were 3.5 million active internet subscriptions in Osun state in Q1 2021.
