Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq of Kwara State has directed that Right of Way (RoW) fee for telecommunications firms (telcos) should be slashed from N5,500 per linear metre to N1 per kilometre of fibre — the second-lowest in Nigeria after Kaduna.

According to a statement by the state commissioner for Communications, Alhaji Murtala Olanrewaju, on Sunday, the reduction takes immediate effect.

The commissioner, who said that the resolution was hinged on the need to create a favourable business environment for telecommunication companies, added that it would further deepen broadband penetration for social and economic development.
