First you didn't mention the network you're using, you didn't state if your area is covered by that network and you equally didn't state how you've tried to do adjustments on the settings to that effect?

Answer these, then I can know where to come in.

Which variant of s5 do you own? Go to your 'about' screen to see it. Mind you, G900H doesn't have LTE support.

G900F supports band 7. Go to your dial pad and dial *#*#4636#*#* then go into Phone information, now scroll down and select 'LTE Only'. Let me know if that helps.

Has nothing to do with MM. I've used 4G on MM S7 edge which doesn't have the option to leave it on 4G. You may be using a branded Galaxy S5

Few more questions you really didn't answer, is your area covered by MTN 4G network, have you tried using another 4G enabled and trusted device to check (say MTN 4G MiFi) and have you asked a friend if they're experiencing the same issue around your area with MTN too?

I will suggest you do a test of the 4G coverage with a 4G MiFi as the ultimate test for confirmation.
