Man shares discovery after setting up Starlink
Onyia disclosed that he purchased the network for N1.3 million last month in Ikeja and pays N48,000 monthly for renewal.
He set up the network in a cluster in his village and opened it up for everyone within the cluster to access high speed internet for free.
Surprisingly, he found out that older people seemed to be enjoying the network more than the young people who also had access to it.
According to him, he has been receiving amazing feedback from both young and old people, but the reviews from the older men and women were more dominant.
In his words:
“Last month, I setup Starlink in a cluster in my village and opened it up for everyone within the cluster to access high speed internet for free. The feedbacks has been amazing.
“Older men and women seems to be enjoying it even more that the younger ones. Little things makes lots of difference and gives me lots of fulfilment. Will expand to more clusters.”
