AG Mobile, an African mobile technology brand, has launched in Nigeria. Established in 2007, it became the first South African brand to release its own mobile device and is now well-known for its range of affordable, quality phones and tablets that offer world-class features, free value adds and exceptional customer service.

This is the ninth African country where AG mobile devices are available and the first where AG Mobile has launched independently of a retail partner.

We’ve started by building relationships with well-respected brands such as MTN, Etisalat, Ringo and Jumia, creating employment opportunities, and supporting the networks’ objectives to advance Nigeria’s connectivity from 2G to 3G.”
