SMILE Unveils Lowest 4G LTE Mobile Call Rates in Nigeria

‘Today, I am proud to announce the lowest call rate in Nigeria, using the very latest 4G LTE technology. Yes Nigeria! It is true. You can make calls at 8kobo per second to any network in Nigeria. You can also make and receive calls at the same rate from any country in the world. That is the Smile innovation! That is the Smile promise!! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome once again to our world of UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES!’
That was the kernel of the speech by Mr. Godfrey Efeurhobo, Managing Director of Smile Communications Limited at the re-launch of Smile Voice services in Lagos yesterday.
‘As you are aware, Smile made the first ever Voice over LTE (VoLTE) call in Nigeria during the beta testing of its voice service in October 2015. Most of you were invited and witnessed this historic event. Since then, we have introduced SmileVoice to our customers who can use SmileVoice from a VoLTE-enabled handset with Smile SIM card OR downloading the SmileVoice App on their Android or Apple iPhone device.’
The SmileVoice App is a world-first, FREE mobile app that gives customers access to SuperClear voice calls over 4G LTE network, without the need for a VoLTE handset. Having the SmileVoice app on your mobile is like having a second SIM card in your phone.
Efeurhobo said Smile customers can use their data plan to make SuperClear voice, video calls and send SMSs to any number locally and internationally and there would be no need for the recipient to also have SmileVoice.
With SmileVoice, thousands of Nigerians are now enjoying seamless, SuperClear voice calls to their loved ones to and from anywhere in the world.
‘With the SmileVoice App, connected to any data network anywhere in the world, you can make calls to any network in Nigeria at the same rate!’

JUMIA Seeks Better Infrastructure for e-Commerce in Africa

Francis Dufay, the Managing Director of JUMIA Côte d’Ivoire has called for better infrastructure to foster rapid and sustainable growth of the e-commerce sector in Africa. He said Côte d’Ivoire "has the basics of the different types of infrastructure" needed for e-commerce and "the challenge remains to improve each of these elements." E-commerce is based on four key infrastructures: Internet, logistics, payment and the legal framework. Although JUMIA managed to transcend the limitations inherent to each type of infrastructure, allowing it to route some 2,000 parcels daily, several points would benefit from qualitative evolutions; including: Logistics with a need for; better roads, 3PL offering the highest quality of service at competitive prices and a more comprehensive addressing system. Payment; where the widespread adoption of cashless payment methods such as mobile money for which JUMIA enjoys the expert support of MTN, should be encouraged. The regulatory and organisational framework could benefit from more education for stakeholders for a better understanding of contractual implications. And internet, whose penetration estimated at 8 million people in Côte d'Ivoire, remains curtailed.
