MTN Nigeria has denied a bribery allegation over its now settled fine issue with the Nigerian Communications Commission [NCC}.
An online report indeed alleged that a top official at the Presidency in Abuja collected bribe from MTN Nigeria to reduce the fine.
In a statement today, MTN Nigeria said:
MTN’s attention has been drawn to an online report alleging that a top official in the Presidency took a payment ‘from operators of MTN’ towards reducing the fine.
According to MTN Nigeria CEO, Ferdi Moolman, MTN Nigeria has no knowledge of this and the allegation is therefore denied.
