Constitutional lawyer and founder of the Universal Defenders of Democracy (UDD), Prof Mike Ozekhome SAN, has condemned MTN’s recent barring of subscribers’ mobile lines.
“Apples Bite” observed since yesterday and today (Sunday and Monday) that Nigerians could not make calls with their MTN line following barring by the South African telecommunications conglomerate.
Reacting to this development, Prof. Ozekhome wondered “Has Nigeria got so low and fallen into such an abysmal state of nadir that MTN, a South African telecommunications conglomerate can simply decide to bar any and every line it whimsically and capriciously desires, with the owners having committed no offence or done any wrong?”
“That is what Nigerians in their multitude have been going through in the hands of MTN since yesterday. At many MTN centres across Nigeria, the battle has been raging physically between customers as regards first-come-first-serve in their desperate quest to get their lines reopened. What’s going on,MTN?”
