MTN launched a new data bundle to provide affordable access to Eskimi, a 6 million size mobile social network in Nigeria. The bundle is available in two packages: weekly for 25 Naira and monthly for 60 Naira. Users of Eskimi bundle can enjoy browsing Eskimi for the selected period without any additional charge.
The solution will allow bundle users to browse all Eskimi pages: messages, profiles, fan clubs, chat rooms, forums, music content for a small weekly or monthly fee and at a fair usage data cap.

As clear leaders in the mobile internet market in Nigeria, and in line with our promise to offer flexible and affordable internet service options to our esteemed customers; we are happy to partner with Eskimi in introducing these new Eskimi data bundle plans.
