mrDennis:



U are a totally unpatriotic Nigerian.... and it's better for them to loose their jobs and suffer now so the country makes progress. than allow a foreign African country dictate to their host government!
nowhere in the world does a defaulter accept his fault... ask for fine reduction and then go to court lmao .

do u know how many south Africans will loose jobs if mtn is pushed out of Nigeria in fact the already wobbling south African ecnomy will feel the pinch much harder!

also south Africa can't retaliate sef because they have too many investments in Nigeria to risk anti-south Africa sentiments rsing up amongst Nigerians.

also Nigeria is a very viable telecoms market and under 5-6months 2 New telecoms firm will enter the naija market to replace mtn ...only in this case south African firms won't be let in out of spite to s.a.

@least that's how any logical government operates
Remember they are Biafraudians, they are not always happy when good things happens to Nigeria and other tribes. Products of baby factories

DSTV did not obey a court order. Many institutions have been disobeying court orders.

So who will obey any court order in this case and who will disobey eventually.

yea bro it's actually THAT simple... if u were glo , airtel etc won't u pick people who already know the system over learners?

truth is we underscore our value in this country... Nigeria is mtn biggest and most profitable market , mtn dare not call buharis bluff because their offices will be sealed ...

we are no longer in the pdp era ... where obj will sell bakassi to Cameroon or where south African govt will deport Nigerians over small issues and only verbal condemnation will be made.

I think this is wrong and could prove harmful to the economy MTN will have to try to make that money back if it does pay it and this could mean job losses , a payment plan should be worked out between mtn and the ncc , i just hope this move isnt driven by greed

They should pay there fine or risk losing there licence.

I hope it would be:

Pay of lose your licence to trade - simple.

I hope the FG handles these MTN people properly as an example to others doing unethical business practices.

if this is the buhari I know ... err1 should go get regittered Sims from other networks because on Jan 1. mtn offices will be sealed.

imagine fining 4 telecoms operators ! giving them 7 days to adhere , then. one company decides it's too big to comply I mean 0% compliance wow .

and some Nigerians here are supporting their actions?

You think so

Touch MTN and see massive unemployment that will be blamed on Buhari

Don't worry , when you start working then will you understand.

I'd say touch MTN first, make them pay for not obeying the law, and let's see what happens from there.

As for the work jab, u sure can do better, boy.

If you currently work in mtn after fruitlessly searching for job for five years, I m sure your line of thinking will be different. My grouse is not with fining but with the outrageous fine. A sensible government ought to give a fine that can be easily paid and which non-payment can be enforced. The question you should ask is: 'Come Dec. 31st, what will govt do if mtn fail to pay?' Shut down mtn? It is easier said than done but we will wait and see.
Federal govt has carried lagos attitude of outrageous fine to the centre, maybe because a former LiRS boss is now at the centre. In Lagos lastma charges outrageous fines too. Many motorists who can't pay abandon their vehicles in the lastma yard. It was some of those vehicles ambode released freely when he came to power. Unfortunately while such fines can be got away with with individuals, it is more difficult when we talk about a corporate entity that employs thousands in a country with high level of employment.


“Please recall that four (4) Operators; MTN, Airtel, Globacom and Etisalat, were sanctioned in August for non compliance of the directive to deactivate the improperly registered SIM Cards. MTN got a fine of N102.2million, Globacom N7.4million, Etisalat N7million and Airtel N3.8million fine. Others complied while MTN flouted the fine.

Nigerian need to understand that the country is not a baboon republic. No company can do what MTN is doing in south Africa. Why will other telecom pay and MTN will refuse to pay. What kind of audacity is that. Their action is a blackmail and insultive to us Nigerians.
FG should,just suspend the MTN licence if it refuse to pay and let us see what happen. We shall know who will loose. MTN subscribers should be advised to port to another telecom. Their action is a display of rascality and embarrassment to the nation.

if mtn sacks people it would mean cutting their operating capacity thus making other networks grow due to people crossing over .
.
also if they sack 1000 . 400 will be absorbed by other firms while new hands will also be employed.

Nigeria is in an unassailable win-win situation here ... mtn and south Africa has a lot to loose . or haven't u noticed south Africa's govt isn't being confrontational over the fine? in fact mtn is getting heat in s.a too over this problem.

just watch dstv is next ... sebi na premiership em dey use catch thrips abi. 13k a month cos I wan watch match every weekend. . lol

The fucking company ought to be slammed another charges for assisting conspiracy and treasonable offences in its part its taking in the Biafra issue. What no Nigerian company can attempt in their country. If MTN's license gets revoked and they pack out of the company, of a truth, many will lose their jobs, but the other networking companies will surely increase their base, and other networking investors will surely come in. There will be a slight decrement in the Nigerian unemployment issue. MTN has everything to lose, Nigeria has nothing to lose! Like they did to Nigerian companies in their country, revoke the Godforsaken company's license and say no to impunity!

I hope I need not educate you on how much MTN have sucked this nation through which they have develop and floated their many other branches in SA and many other nations yet they struggle to pay their operational fee and even adopt means to reduce their tax payment by posting lesser of what they make.
With all their High tariff and poor network, what is basis for defending this thieving MTN? When others have complied and paid their fine they remain adamant and now file a court case on top of the matter! It is only an insane person that will overlook all this fact and advocate for MTN!
