4 Aromire Road, off Kingsway Road in Ikoyi, is an MTN switching centre with a walk-in Connect store attached, and MTN Nigeria publishes no floor area, power or capacity for it. The word Switch in the name carries its telephone-exchange sense rather than any link to the American operator of that name. The Lagos data centre MTN does publish specifications for is a different building - the Dabengwa Sifiso facility, opened in July 2025 at a cost of 235 million US dollars, with 4.5 MW of IT load and 780 racks across three floors in its first phase and 9 MW at full build - and that is also the building holding the Uptime Tier III certification of a constructed facility. The Lagos buildings that carry multiple networks, among them Rack Centre, Equinix LG1 and LG2, Africa Data Centres and OADC LOS1, sit elsewhere in the city.
