Nigeria seems to be run by people without basic education. Yet they go out of their way to make sure officials get all the degrees and certificates to fill up a file cabinet. Where can I start this analysis? Nigeria is a joke! (greatest summary ever) |

This is what happens when u collect bribe and grant license to incompetent investors. Investors that has absolutely nothing to offer other than to milk the already suffering economy dry. They have succeeded in coarcing NCC and the useless minister into making the people they were created to protect to suffer. MTN,AIRtEL,GLO and Etisalat are big companies that knows the importance of customers and competition, they are ever ready take challenges. Why bring in "baby company" that can't spell it's name to come and compete/play with elders? Then u want to bring down the reasoning capacity of the elders so that the kid can be accommodated, what u simply did was bring down everybody down to the child's reasoning, it is not good, because instead of making us progressive, it makes room for retrogression . Allow them to be mature and strong enough to paly with the elder or u push them to children section(other countries) where they will meet their age mates. 5 Likes |

These people are just evil and I know they will not relent on their evil intentions but God will protect us from these evil people. Their whole aim is to destroy social media in Nigeria Who are the small telecoms providers that they have been talking about. These are all lies because most Nigerians use MTN, Glo, Etisalat and Zain. These companies are giant companies making profits in billions. How can you tell me that NCC is more interested in the protection of some fictitious smaller operators than the over 170 million Nigerians. Even if you must protect the smaller companies, you can provide loans, reduce tax for companies in that category. |

MTN was the first network to implement the data tariff before the recommended date. Same Mtn has accompanied the NCC to the senate hearing committee. A very suspicious move. The NCC Chairman is as fraudulent as he is as dumb. How can you liken NITEL days to what we have today? NITEL was virtually the only telecommunication firm in Nigeria. Today we have over 4 giant companies making huge profits and providing data which is still relatively expensive given Nigeria's population and the NCC Chairman is talking about monopoly. This man deserve to be stripped of his cloths and position publicly. Market forces determine the price. There are more than enough operators to undermine any monopoly. NCC Chairman you're a fraudulent, scatterbrained illiterate. 3 Likes |

[size=18pt][b]Am not sure these men went to school, your level of argument betrasys you. You don't have much to convince us. Did they ask u to protect dem, how about SMEs and other multinational companies that shut down because of your selfish policies? How do u protect people that lost their job because of your incompetence, how do u protect SMEs that could not buy fuel to run their biz, how dou protect Nigerian from power failure, how do protect people from lack of adequate hospitals equipment and infrastructures etc.. We were taught that competition is healthy in business, it makes one to think out side the box. Competition fuels development. In a competitive market every one brings out his best. It is the market forces that will adjust the price not not selfish government policy. With out completion no network will upgrade to 3G to 4G. it is competioins and market forces that will tell them where to upgrade the network. So floor price will not bring professionalism, growth will be impaired. Fix light and see a new form of market forces.[/b][/size] 1 Like |

Where are the lawyers and human rights activists? Have they gone into oblivion? Has recession prevented them from going to court to get an injuction to stop this "madness" ? They easily do it for Politicians but, abandon the masses to either go and die or bear the untold hardship. There are insensitivity and injustice on the part of government towards the people of this nation. They just want to gag us at all cost by using any means. 1 Like |

going by his own words lines increased from 500k to over 152mil. only sim price reduction ensured this. you should move forward not backwards. if mtn is threatening you not to pay their fine just let them go so other operators can take their place. |

Policy inconsistencies is killing this country via this government. Say one thing today, twist it tomorow, withdraw it the next day, plunge it back in again.....

wasn't the slogan years ago that prices would reduce once higher competition and new entrants come in. the mtn fine would be cash at hand i agree but the citizens and their welfare comes first. call their bluff and let mtn go if it cannot play. abi. 1 Like 1 Share |

if not for glo and others we would still be buying sim for 20k under mtn. that is the company you feel you should protect because of their high appetite. let mtn go if they choose to. we will not miss them. #LETNONPROGRESSIVEPLAYERSGO 1 Like 1 Share |

Shittu is a disgrace to this government. He was the one that unilaterally reduced the fine imposed on MTN. He was complaining as a federal minister about lack of electricity! He was even talking about increase in foreign exchange! Who is he defending? He has a nag for protecting private operators who are punishing Nigeria daily. Since 2001, MTN was given a tax holiday for fifteen years for operating in Nigeria. 2016 is the their first year for corporate tax since they have been operating. Now the minister is supporting them to recoup money meant for the people through the back door. A law should be made for ministerial nominees to show which department they are going to work. If this were to be the case Shittu will never be in telecomms 3 Likes 1 Share |

Xano:I'm sorry, you don't understand at all. MTN and co didn't say they're not making profits despite the electricity burden. The issue is trying to indirectly favour the new and seemingly incompetent entrants. |
