With porting allowed, no prefix can be said to be peculiar to a particular network. I started off one of my lines on airtel but I currently use the same number on Etisalat network

There is no useful network providers in Nigeria. All we have is network bandits. Go to other countries, their network providers are gifting them free internet access to assist them in lock down but all MTN could do is to tell me that I have been rewarded with free SMS. Pleas can someone tell me what I want to do with free SMS when I have whatsapp and other social media platforms to connect with friends and families and text my boredom away. Now they are buying additional prefix, who dat one help
Ogun kill mtn and if they survive make devil uproot their teeth

They don't need all these new prefixes

It's not like Nigeria's population is growing geometrically or MTN is the only network in Nigeria

They should check the old ones: There are millions of them that people no longer use

MTN Nigeria has added 3 new network prefixes to its preexisting 10, which brings the tally to 13.

On the 11th of March, 2020, MTN Nigeria added the network prefixes, 0704, 07025, 07026 to its Network. The prefixes, which were formerly for visafone numbers were launched 3 years after the acquisition of visafone by MTN Nigeria.
As Number ranges get exhausted, new ones are unveiled. For instance, when “0803” and “0806” numbers got exhausted around 2009, MTN Nigeria unveiled the 0813 Numbering range

Therefore, with the emergence of the new network prefixes, potential subscribers can purchase their new MTN lines, and opt for which of the three prefixes they prefer.

For subscribers that are unsure of which Network Prefix is peculiar to MTN Nigeria, Geeky Nigeria has compiled a comprehensive list of their Network Prefixes.

MTN Nigeria’s Mobile Phone Network Prefixes

07025
The “07025” prefix was formerly associated with the now defunct Visafone. MTN Nigeria acquired Visafone in late December 2015.

07026
The prefix was for the defunct Visafone, which was acquired by MTN Nigeria.

0703
One of MTN Nigeria’s pioneering Network prefixes. It was launched in 2007, after they acquired the Unified Access license.

0704
A Network prefix formerly used by defunct Visafone, which MTN Nigeria acquired.

0706
One of the first network prefixes used by MTN. It was rolled in after “0803” and “0806”.

0803
MTN Nigeria started commercial operations via the 0803 prefix in 2001. It was the first to be used by the Network.

0806
The second network prefix used by MTN Nigeria after “0803”. It was launched in 2005.

0810
MTN Nigeria launched the “0810” prefix in 2011. According to their tweet, they did so to give more power to 50 Million Nigerians.

0813
The prefix was unveiled in 2009, after MTN Nigeria exhausted the “0803” and “0806” prefix.

0814
“0814” was introduced in December 2012.

0816
The prefix was launched in December 2009. That same year, MTN Nigeria was quoted to have secured approval from NCC for submarine cable landing station.

0903
MTN introduced this number prefix in 2013.

0906
The “0906” prefix was announced in 2017, 4 years after “0903” was unveiled.

Nice, but would have been better if in order of chronology as regards their dates.

One of the things this covid 19 has exposed in Nigeria is that we are a very poor country.

People begging poor celebrities for giveaway, begging companies for freebies, even the govt begging Tesla for what they can afford.

We are all 'beggers' in this country. Its now so bad, that after begging, we mock, insult and curse these companies for not giving us 'their' own money


Ppl don't even realize that these companies are running into massive losses, for instance the Telcos have their share prices crashed so badly that they are now rated as junk.


Its crazy.

It doesn't matter how much their services cost, how difficult the times, may God help us scale thru without begging or suffering.

They are simply reactivating the former visafone prefixes.

You guys are strong enough to reduce your tariff while you're introducing more prefix ranges especially during this pandemic period...
