No Mercy For MTN - Reps by holymike47(m): 6:15pm On Mar 09, 2016
The House of Representatives is insisting that GSM service provider, MTN Nigeria must pay the N780b fine slammed on it by the NCC

This is as the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami and the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari have been invited to appear before the House next week to explain and justify their roles in the negotiation process.

It was disclosed Wednesday that MTN had, in its proposal for settlement of the face-off with the Federal government planned to pay N300b only out of the N1.04 trillion that was later reduced to N780b.

It proposed to pay N50b it described as ‘goodwill offer’ and another N100b in cash while the balance would be paid with complementary services (in kind).

The service provider also proposed to be listed on the Nigeria Stock Exchange (NSE) as part of the settlement negotiation.

The lawmakers said since it was an incontrovertible fact that MTN was found culpable of breaching Sections 19 and 20 of the NCC Act, it was in no position to dictate the terms of negotiation at it is currently doing.

While condemning the exclusion of the National Assembly from the negotiation of the fine by the Federal government, the lawmakers regretted that NCC was also relegated to the background in the exercise.
