Don Jazzy collaborates with
Flobyt on free wiFi
All eyes were on the Chief Executive
Officer of Mavin Records , Don Jazzy ,
on Friday when a free Flobyt wiFi
package was unveiled in Lagos .
He is collaborating with some experts
on the project that stakeholders,
including the Commissioner for
Culture in Oyo State , Mr. Toye
Arurolgun, and the authorities of the
Federal Ministry of Communication
commended them .
The Chief Executive of Tsaboin , Dele
Odufuye , who is a principal partner in
the initiative , said Flobyt wiFi service
would be installed across locations in
Lagos – including eateries , parks , taxis ,
buses, restaurants and cafés .
According to him, Flobyt will not only
guarantee free access, it will also
ensure that the platform is secure , thus
protecting users ’ information .
The user has an opportunity to enjoy
the package for 15 minutes, after
which he or she can log in minutes
after .
“ The internet router is said to be a
plug - and - play device that does not
require much technical know - how to
operate.
Odufuye noted that the product made
business sense for the founders as it
would serve users adverts during their
sessions.
He added, “ We know that this is not
the first free wiFi proposition in
Nigeria. However , we have state- of -
the - art technology, security and speed
to make it an enduring one. ”
An excited Don Jazzy , who is among
Nigerian artistes with the largest
following on social media , said he had
for long been involved in online
support for people before .
He said , “ We are working on it
passionately. It will impact the society
positively . So, I believe very much in
it. The Flobyt free wifi will be one of
the few other investments we will
share with you over the years.
‘I have been on social media for a
while and know what it takes to
maintain a presence . While we have
offered some free stuff before , this
new idea solves the question of how to
make it permanent. ”
Commending the effort of the partners
that also include Mr. Tayo Adedigba ,
Arulogun said the Flobyt dream would
help in employment generation ,
meaning that the founders were
contributing to economic development .
“ I think there is future for Nigeria
when you have young people coming
together to do business ,” he said .
