9mobile brief History
9mobile, formerly known as Etisalat Nigeria, was established in 2008 as a subsidiary of the multinational telecommunications company, Etisalat Group based in the United Arab Emirates. The company quickly rose to become one of the leading mobile telecommunications providers in Nigeria, offering a wide range of services including voice, data, and mobile banking. However, in 2017, the company faced a major financial crisis after defaulting on a $1.2 billion loan, leading to the withdrawal of its parent company’s support.
In an effort to restructure and save the company from collapse, Etisalat Nigeria rebranded as 9mobile in 2017 and began seeking new investors to inject much-needed capital into the business. Despite the setbacks, 9mobile has managed to maintain its position in the Nigerian telecommunications market, continuing to provide reliable services to millions of customers across the country.
