I think this is a welcomed development as it will really go a long way to serve some people.
Although images are removed when using free basic but it’s still manageable especially to read news and get information from sites like Nairaland whenever you run out of data plan
Free basic on Facebook is not that awesome because the beauty of Facebook is the pictures, video and other media stuffs. So if you are okay with that, you can go ahead and use Facebook free of charge (without images).
It’s now left for MTN and Glo to follow suit.
