At the same time, technology adoption patterns continue to evolve, with 5G penetration reaching 3.77% by December 2025, signaling gradual uptake of next-generation connectivity.
Despite T2 Mobile’s consistent gains, the competitive environment remains strong, with major operators such as MTN and Globacom continuing to hold substantial market positions.
