The Nigerian Communications Commission has granted Globacom Limited more time to settle its interconnectivity dispute with MTN Nigeria Communications Limited.

The Director of Public Affairs of the NCC, Dr. Reuben Mouka, made this known in a statement on Thursday.

Mouka said: “On January 8, 2024 the Nigerian Communications Commission published a Pre-Disconnection Notice informing subscribers of the approval granted to MTN Nigerian Communications Plc. (MTN) to commence the phased disconnection of Globacom Limited (Glo) with effect from January 18, 2024 due to long-standing interconnection debt dispute between the parties.

“In granting the approval, the Commission was deeply conscious of the potential impacts of the decision on consumers and therefore continued to engage both parties to facilitate a resolution which prioritizes and protects consumer interest and the seamless operation of the national telecoms network.

“The Commission is pleased to announce that the parties have now reached agreement to resolve all outstanding issues between them. For this reason, and in exercise of its regulatory powers in that regard, the Commission has put the phased disconnection on hold for a period of 21 (twenty-one) days from today, 17 January, 2024.

“Whilst the Commission expects MTN and Glo to resolve all outstanding issues within the 21-day period, the Commission insists that interconnect debts must be settled by all operating companies as a necessary component towards compliance with regulatory obligations of all licensees. It is OBLIGATORY that Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) and other licensees in the telecom industry keep to the terms and conditions of their licenses, especially as contained in their interconnection agreements.”

Rich men fight, that is how it's settled.

But why Glo sell recharge card, made calls but refuse to pay

Hehehe.

If only GLO will use the money they splash on advertisement and celebrities to pay MTN and also work on their network ,it would be lovely.

GLO and MTN no one gree for each other .

Thats good

Okay.

But Glo said them nor dey owe anybody

Damnnn niggar

Two dead networks can go kill themselves
I stick with my airtel network anyday anytime twice on Thursday

Empty hen and glo are dead networks especially that glo the slow networks like injured snails

You might even give you life to Christ before you finish downloading a porn movie with glo this is to tell you how slow glow network is

Will it stop GLO from always having poor network service?

Who dey use glo??

Aight

how did glo end up indebted to MTN

someone should be explain

Finally

Consume made in Nigeria to grow the Naira...!

The made in Nigeria can't even stand well to meet needs.

See how Glo has been struggling since inception.

Can someone explain this to me: the owner of Glo, Chief Mike Adenuga, is said to be Nigeria’s second richest person with a net worth of $7.4 billion. How come then that he (yes, because he’s the sole owner of Glo) is owing MTN so much in interconnectivity fees? Is it that the reported wealth is fake or that he’s a notorious, insensitive debtor?

Who can explain this conundrum to me?

Ok

Soon they will come here to tell us how they are the richest in Forbes 🤣

I’ve never used glo network in my life, very useless network

Glo showing the bad side cunny way of Nigerian businesses

They will pay, first, second, maybe third and start misbehaving hold your and refuse all avenue for payment and take you to court

Glo network wack without partial disconnection, they don't understand themselves let alone interconnection

..

Flame333:

Because the economy isn't smiling.

I believe Glo might also be owing most staffs salaries.

GLO WITH PRIDE.

Why is interconnection charges applaud in the first place. Consumer are in the receiving end of this fiasco. The service provider charges their respective subscriber through recharge card and their profit can be based solely on that. The only rational behind the interconnection charges is the benefit accrued to companies with fewer subscriber. Therefore company like Globacom can leverage their income with the dominant network like MTN through indirect charges to incoming call. And the big question now is why Globacom is owing MTN as the later should pay more
