Ikpoki has been replaced by Ferdi Moolman as MTN Nigeria CEO while Goodluck has been replaced by Amina Oyagbola as its head of Regulatory and Corporate Affairs. Read the press statement released my MTN group after the cut...
“MTN Nigeria’s CEO Michael Ikpoki and the head of Regulatory and Corporate Affairs Akinwale Goodluck have tendered their resignations with immediate effect,” the company said in a statement Thursday morning. “They are replaced by Ferdi Moolman as MTN Nigeria CEO and Amina Oyagbola as its head of Regulatory and Corporate Affairs. Mr Moolman was previously COO at MTN Irancell and most recently CFO at MTN Nigeria.
A Nigerian national, Ms Oyagbola also retains the position of MTN Nigeria’s Head of Human Resources. She formerly headed regulatory affairs at the Nigerian operating company.” The company also said it has received a formal letter dated December 2 from the NCC informing it that, “after considering the Company’s request, it has taken the decision to reduce the fine on the MTN Nigerian business from the original N1,040,000,000,000 (One Trillion, Forty Billion Naira) to N674 Billion Naira which has to be paid by 31 December 2015.”
The fine relates to the late disconnecting of 5.1 million MTN Nigeria subscribers in August and September 2015.

Wow, nah change,
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......(in noisy Yoruba pple's voice). NO WONDER MY LINE HAS BEEN CRACKING OVER A WEAK NOW. Mh!....SEEING MTN DECLINING IN EFFICIENCY.
ReplyDeleteAre you normal?
DeleteWhy the consideration on the initial fine of N1.04billion? Could the reduction be the reason for the 9-page advert in The Guardian of today? The fact that they are involved in CSR with those scholarship grants does not mean that they should strangulate us economically. After all, we are not disposed to their Management Accounts which is where the 'real deal' lies. I do not subscribe to the soft-pedal approach handed out to them. The fine is meant to serve as a deterrent and should have remained non-negotiable. Has anybody bothered to examine the quantum of capital flight going on in that office? Our Regulators must rise up to the occasion; otherwise, operators in difference areas will take them for a ride!
ReplyDeleteThey should quickly drop all their stupid ambassadors na, them davido Tiwa iyanya wizkid n the rest, Wat value are they adding to the brand, if not to stop a car n start playing eminado in one of their stupid advert. Some of them don't even use mtn sef. Drop some of them n pay ur fine, shikena.
ReplyDeleteLinda's last son
They must pay that fine tho!!! Its a must
ReplyDeleteWhat about the other management staff? what are they waiting for. They better resign before they are forced to do so.
ReplyDeleteWahala dey ooo
ReplyDeleteThere had to be a victim. Sorry man.
ReplyDeleteSeen...
ReplyDeleteWowoo END TIME resignation wish u all the best
ReplyDeleteSorry Man! http://www.bummyla.com
ReplyDeleteMy guess will be that they tendered their resignation as a result of the fine MTN will pay.

Many more people are going to be jailed by Buhari administration for corruption. We have not seen anything yet.
ReplyDeleteExcellent news
ReplyDelete~D great anonymous!
The federal government of Nigeria should compel MTN to become a publicly traded company seeing that they have made so much profit in Nigeria. The fine should then be used to buy shares into the publicly traded Nigeria branch of MTN such that MTN can profit for nigerians and stop being perceived as a foreign brand. Shikena.
ReplyDeletebut our leaders don't think that way, they are probably already thinking of using the money to do public projects.
MTN should be barned! Or I wish a Nigerian could buy the company same as dstv
ReplyDelete***LIBER FINEST***
dey shuld retire or force dem to retire..................criminals.................I HATE MTN with my spirit,soul and body.............useless and criminal network........#EFCC do ur work on MTN
ReplyDeleteNo matter the amount NCC deducted. it'll still be us (NIGERIAN) that will be pay it indirectly.
