Buhari to decide MTN’s fate on $5.2billion fine

Nigeria’s communications ministry said on Wednesday that it is up to President Buhari to decide ''in which direction to go'' with a $5.2 billion fine imposed on mobile phone network operator MTN.

''The (Communications) minister (Adebayo Shittu) said in Lagos that it will be up to the president to determine which direction to go since MTN asked for leniency, ''ministry spokesman Tajudeen Kareem said.

The South African firm was fined by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) at the end of October for not disconnecting 5.2 million unregistered users from its network.
