In recent years, we have witnessed the gradual emergence of internet companies in Nigeria. So I have decided to put together a list of those companies and what form of services they offer.

An average person uses the internet 10-15 times a day while a
great number of individuals almost never get off it. The Internet has revolutionised “the media”, “the way we connect with each other” and even “the way we do business”.
Multi-billion dollar companies such as Google and Facebook are the leading internet companies of today.
