MTN: ‘Claims of Reported Final Fine Settlement Premature’

The management of MTN Nigeria says it is premature to speculate on the final settlement of the fine issue between it and the Nigerian Communications Commission [NCC].

Indeed, it was widely reported that MTN Nigeria has insisted on paying only N300, 000 out of the N780, 000 fine to the NCC.
But MTN Nigeria issued an official release few seconds ago on the issue.

The release read as follows:
“The management of MTN Nigeria is aware of the reports on the settlement negotiations.
The CEO of MTN, Ferdi Moolman, stated that the confidential negotiations are still very much on-going with the authorities to achieve an amicable resolution of the matter.

Accordingly‎, no further comment can be made at this time.”

Intercontinental Bank Plc: Death so Painful

The banking entity was officially proclaimed DEAD by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) in 2009. It was a mysterious and painful demise. But the soul of the bank has refused to Rest-in-Peace. Today, the living dead skeleton of the bank are rumbling in the belly of Access Bank Plc, fueling ghostly imaginations of resurrection or reincarnation. The Early Years Intercontinental Bank Plc was born in 1989 to the family of Dr. Erastus Akingbola. Early in life, the young bank exhibited elements of excellence, profitability and leadership in the banking sector. And when the whistle was blown on Banking Consolidation in 2005, the bank merged seamlessly with three other banking institutions: Equity Bank of Nigeria, Gateway Bank and Global Bank in October of that year. Naturally, the merging process made it bigger in terms of size, branch network, customer base and profitability.
