Great!
sometimes i wonder how people think.. If you were fined N20M for stealing N100k will you call it a fair judgement?

Fining a company with N333b for failure to disconnect rubbish.. Who ncc help?

Glo,Visafone, and airtel, how many of their database are correct? Abi no be airtel wen yahoo boys dey use pass?

Clear Politics....

The amount per person was made known long ago. MTN was the only company in operation in Nigeria that refused to cut the services to such a large number of users, that is the reason for the fine.

It has nothing to do with hatred for South Africa.

They knew the rules long in advance - everyone else complied.
ok i hear you, now the bad news, you are not going to get any cent out of that billions, not even a single ordinary Nigerian will benefit from it. Goodluck anyway

I'm not expecting anything. I don't look to government for anything.

It's more about hurting MTN than anything at this - punitive damages, so to speak.

They broke the law, now they can pay the fine.

MTN waited and extorted double of the fine from customers before agreeing to pay half.

O.k let make it this way, if you give 150million nigerians 150,000,000 how many million will each person gets?
If 150 million naira is shared by 150 million nigerians, each nigerian will gain 1 naira only. But 150 people will gain 1 million naira each after sharing 150 million naira.

See Signatures Of Top Tech CEOs And What It Reveals About Their Personality

I found an interesting research paper that analyzed the physical attributes of a person’s signature and what it says about their personalities. According to the research, the larger the signature, the bigger the ego. Also, the bigger a CEO’s ego, the more likely he/she is to be a narcissist. It also noted that a clearly legible signature suggests that the author is straightforward and open.
