Am very very Glad 4 this charges

eaglechild:
Ever since Ndukwe left the NCC and Buhari appointed his northern brother Umaru to replace him, that place has been a mess.

The government cannot rely on MTN to solve her economic woes.

Buhari is also too dull to see that he is chasing away foreign investors by his constant flip flops.

your daftness forgot Juwai, who collected billions to do same SIM registration that operators were also doing.

which one be NTC again? NCC u mean?

Na dat one even pain me most.

I wonder if the said FINE is true or they are just SCAMING us

DeHero1:
That means increment in stupid text msg. They're just looking for means to sap money from customers... as if na we cause regulator error.

Just to make call sef, they'll display a message on the screen. If u choose 'OK' u dun enter one-chance be that.

The #50 they gather from caller tunes monthly will settle that bill... Change go still remain sef.

Imagine... 50 x One Million Nigerians.

EmptyHen indeed.

45 to 50 million subscribers u mean, 1 million ke

Keep increasing the fine till you pursue all foreign investors.

MTN Group Ltd. had its record fine in Nigeria
increased $500 million to $3.9 billion after the
country’s telecommunications regulator said it
wrote the incorrect penalty in an earlier letter
to Africa’s largest phone company.
“There was a typo,” Nigerian Communication
Commission spokesman Tony Ojobo said by
phone on Friday, referring to a letter dated Dec.
2 that reduced the original $5.2 billion penalty to
$3.4 billion. “The reduction should have been 25
percent. We saw the mistake and had to fix it.”
MTN spokesman Chris Maroleng declined to
comment. The shares traded 4.7 percent lower at
133.40 rand as of 10:39 a.m. in Johannesburg,
the lowest since Nov. 17.
MTN received a second letter on Thursday which
superseded the first letter and increased the fine
to $3.9 billion, the Johannesburg-based company
said in a statement on Friday. The payment date
is Dec. 31.

MY HEAD CATCH THEM

On Nov 13, I posted an opinion that Nigerians chanting this fine as appropriate will come back and say reverse their statement because it's the same Nigerians that would pay this fine, yall did not believe it. It has started, by the time MTN is done with Nigerians, yall would port over

All these govt workers dat are paid fat sums and can hardly calculate 25% reduction of a certain amount. SMH

Interesting
$500 million typo error.
This differential can elevate someoone's blood pressure.

MTN should rush and pay up because delay is proofing dangerous.
Who knows what will be the actual fine in the ext two weeks?
I have a question, what would have happened if MTN had already paid the earlier lower fine?

On a personal note, I do not pity MTN one bit.
Anyone remembers the moment you see a recalcitrant bully having his/her ass kicked.
Hope they learn to follow the rules after this.

I usually dump them for another network, if they start getting crazy. I urge u to do same.

u ar a foooool for callin ur president 'dullard'.no b ernest ndukwe or whatever messed up dat place

Gazzy88:
Mtn is really killing me,my credit always disappearing every now and then. A sign of good thing to come I made fp so smooth.....somebody help me buy nail-cutter for lalast....

not only you,it was worse couple of weeks ago

Ths whole thing is beginning to turn to joke sef.regulatory error my foot.

How can a regulatory body for a nation make a typographical error in such a sensitive matter like this?the official letter should have passed through at least 3 offices for verification before been forwarded to Mtn. So if Mtn had paid the money ,the ncc will now ask them to pay additional money again,which wasn't the fault of Mtn

Dee60:
WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS CYCLICAL SUMERSAULT OF A MOVEMENT FROM OUR PEOPLE?

$500 MILLION TYPO ERROR!

I THINK IT PORTRAYS US AS UNSERIOUS.....

Its called unproffessional, who will take Nigeria serious after all this drama. All this reflect bad on Nigeria as a whole

krimes:
As much as we all love to hate mtn, please we don't want them leaving naija. They can be annoying but they're still our most reliable telecom company. At least many of us get to rock cheap/free browsing with them.

I dont see them last in Nigeria, its so unfortunate, we are talking about people's money here, who took risk and invest their hard earned cash to Nigeria through MTN. even if MTN pays, they will downgrade their operation in nigeria, then later on sell shares and exit. Because, as it stands, there i no garrantees that there wont be other charges in the future.

Bsc:
Doesn't make sense to me...cuz it still falls back on us... 1.They may decide to reduce salary of workers
2.Consumers may begin to experience high cost in tariff
3.They may also sack some of their workers (mostly Nigerians)
Ques: Na who go chop the fine? me abi our Government !

My fellow Nigerians,please let us endure and get it right this once at least: nothing good comes easy. After all MTN is not the only mobile network in Nigeria,let's support and encourage this government to do the right thing without being sentimental. No doubt we know the allegation against this coy.,bothers on our national security. If it were to be in any of the other countries of the world you and I know what might have happened to MTN by now without wasting time as it is here in our case.
God bless Nigeria!
