HiddenShadow:I doubt if this man is a NIGERIAN... what have MTN done for you? how have MTN benefitted you? what is their achievement in this country? Sometimes people talk blindly... In SA they enjoy free browsing, quality network and low tariff, while we pay through our nose to give MTN their biggest revenue and yet we dont enjoy value for our Airtime! What is APC about this matter?? is it justice to get others pay the fine and exonerate MTN? Does it seems they have the interest of our country by defying orders to suck us dry and still went ahead to court? Nigeria will only move forward when people like you begin to reason objectively and sensibly! 3 Likes |

I dey smile una comments. Mostly, those shouting MTN should pay. #780bn is a huge money to anyone but not to MTN.. The truth is that, should MTN decide to pay, then, we, the users of the network will be the ones that paid it. because they will pay the money, and only have to activate their ''hidden tarrif'' on every sim where they'll over charge u for every seconds of call without the users knowledge. Sms would go back to 4 naira. Data bundles will be drilled like no man's biz. Knowing how over 70 million people are connected to the internet... Contrary to what i'm sayin, that punishment of 780bn is much. When even in the same govt., there are worse offenders who goes free. 1 Like |

Guy's lets not be too quick to condemn. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. MTN will obviously pay so as to remain in business considering the high profit margin made from Nigerian subscribers as against other African countries. For those insisting they shut down, do you know how many unemployed folks you end up throwing into the already saturated labour market? Someone mentioned other network operators absorbing them, truth is, the other ones are laying off staffs in order to cut cost, so how will they now want to start absorbing. So many businesses and small scaled employments are linked directly/indirectly to MTN in a way. So if they go down, there will be a ripple effect so bad that it will begin to affect everyone in very little ways, maybe not directly. As for fresh graduates out there insisting MTN should be shut down, you may just be worsening your plight. Experienced hands will come to struggle very little opportunities with graduates with little or no experience in relevant fields, and what will be the outcome? 1 Like 1 Share |

See how people in government talks. What has GEJ administration got to do with this? What is total value of mtn Nigeria that NCC alone wants to collect 700billion? Do you guys know each state, LGA also tax base stations in their locality? Why are they trying so hard to blame network operators for their own lack of technology to track criminals? FYI, the almighty DSS has only three equipment that can monitor calls and they move this from one region to the other based on the case they are investigating..why can't FG buy more? For those that have travelled out, do you do sim reg or your national ID is all u need to show to get one and info is automatically sycn to the sim? Did anyone not notice the flaw in the registration process. U go and provide information about who u are and there is no means to verify if it is correct. Therefore I can be Tunde on my etisalat sim and Michael on mtn network..isn't that a flaw. A lazy government that is looking for money deceiving gullible masses that it is for their interest. A government that wants to kill the only industry that they privatised successfully because they lack foresight to see its potential an killed NiTel. We should not let our unreasonable hatred for SA companies consume us as a people. If mtn shuts down today their is no other operator that has the installed capacity to absorb their subscribers. None! What about the ir enterprise customers? Fyi, the economy and the people that will suffer if mtn shuts down will be Nigerians. Diesel suppliers, trade partners that have invested millions, generator companies, even fcmg companies will suffer. Sales are now being monitored by companies because field sales people key in data real time and the logical thing to do is use the biggest network. And the ncc man spoke half truths and he clearly thinks he is impressing the government. How many people here have registered their lines more than twice this year? Do u think mtn isn't submitting them to ncc? They do and ncc keeps rejecting them. That's why mtn keeps asking u to come back. The bigger picture is political....mtn is contributing 4% of Nigeria's gdp as one company. Biggest contributor outside oil and gas and they want to take it over and ruin it. I dare FG to shut down mtn...u will only take your country backwards. A country that needs so much catching up to do is threatening investors. MTN has already complied by disconnecting the lines twice in the last two months. Is the motive getting mtn to do the right thing of fining them out of business? The fine is illogical and we are so short-sighted we fail to see the massive negative impact this will have. This is coming from an administration of Buhari that cancelled the Lagos metro line years back under the disguise of corruption and fast forward few years Lagos has one of the worst traffic gridlock in the whole world. If he has foresight, Lagos metroline shouldn't have been cancelled. Shut down mtn as see how customer experience on all other operators go bad in a few days. I dare FG to do so.

There should be better ways to deal with this rather than requesting MTN pays this outrageous sum. Meanwhile, shutting down MTN will definitely have an adverse effect on the Nigerian economy. A more subtle approach should be employed. |

I don't understand why we keep on lamenting that mtn, Dstv, shoprite and other South African companies has been exploiting us. We gave them such opportunity to exploit. In as much as I don't hold brief for mtn, I could remember when ncc told mtn to scrap most of their tariff plan that it is cheaper than other networks' own. Mtn had to comply. Other network operators are also guilty of exploiting us including our own glo with their high tariffs. But then, MTN should know what's best for them to do if they still want to remain in business. |

Let it be on record that the first major achievement of the APC/ Buhari government is not to create jobs but to ensure investors they met are driven out of business. Bokoharam has bombed more than 150 sites of mtn in the north.....is that also mtn responsibility? Fine mtn but let it be reasonable. By now, if I am Buhari, any spokesperson that refer to GEJ in any communication should be fired immediately. No one sent all these ass likcers and shallow thinkers to be referring to GEJ in all interviews. In their mind, they think they are impressing their subjects. What has Shittu done as minister that this man is praising him? Or is he just minister for fine? What is government road map for telecoms? Stop using mtn to score cheap political gains because u hav found that majority of Nigerians a gullible and have herd mentality (follow follow) Yes Nigerians are tired of poor services, not only in telecommunications. Bad roads, no power even leadership, YES we are tried of bad leaders.... |

I am not aware of a penalty fine this large being paid by any company anywhere in the world. I'm almost certain they will not pay it as it currently stands. Yes the sum requested is deemed to be supported by agreed operating contract terms and conditions still yet I think this penalty is far in excess of one that could be obliged by any management board worth their salt. If things get too heated they will surely pack up and leave. Just my thoughts though. |

If MTN pays the fine tomorrow, then the res in the case is destroyed and the purpose of filing the action in court rendered nugatory. NCC having raised a team of senior lawyers to defend the case in court has become aware of it's existence and should not threaten to enforce the sanction. That will be against the Rule of Law. |
