LMAyedun: MTN milking Nigerians dry since 1953.

Lets wake up Nigerians and discard MTN like SA did and are still doing.. Afterall, MTN is one of the poorest network provider in this country.

kobonaire: true but Nigeria has also gained more .... think of the employment, secondary industries etc ..all that values to more than the $2.5B that they took out.. you do not nationalize your companies, the world is becoming a global village.
Dats correct. MTN has employed a lot of Nigerians dou many are contract staff. We pray dat one day they'll make dem full staff or something close to that considering the amount of profit they make because contract staff do not partake in their profit sharing things and other allowances full staff get........ To God be d glory.

iwonbaoko: You no get sense!! they just bleeped Nigeria $2.5 billion and you are here feeling cool. How many Nigerian companies are taking $2.5 billion out of SA

you don't expect SA to beat us with our population. we are almost x2 of south Africa. when Nigerian companies start to develop good business strategies, we will topple that amount

But no, serious question- i remember in 2001-2002 you had to dial a number like 15 times before it connects. Is that still the case? grin

In the world of business, cutbacks on quality infrastructure= profit growth. Especially when you were afforded the opportunity to be an industry spearhead. We all know Econet's 0802 was dead on arrival back in the day cheesy

da one no concern me... Please before you go to bed 2nite, tie a palm leaf and a red clothe with 2 native chalk(male and female) round your head and waist. Afterwards, dance around any banana tree singing ebelebe ebelebe ebelebe 7times. This also prevents Ebola virus and special shout out to all the educated men and women who bath with salt this morning. We are drinking urine tomorrow and rubbing pepper in our eyes the day after tomorrow. =D =)) Ebola MUST go. funny Lol joke of the century

Good talk. We talk as if it is not the same MTN that's putting food on some people's table. We want foreign investors to flood our country, and when these investors come and do profitable business with us ( which is mutual) we cry out that they are "robbing us". What stops us from also going to South Africa to do profitable business and bring back the money to Nigeria. Nigerians, complaining of foul play since 1914

If mtn was a monopoly in Nigeria, then those of you complaining that mtn is unduely exploiting Nigerians would have a valid argument. But clearly that is not the case, we have our own home grown glo and numerous other telcos providing a viable alternative to mtn, yet majority of Nigerians chose mtn.
The fact that most of us chose to use mtn when ther are other viable alternatives, means that mtn has something of value that they rightly charge nigerians for.
