This is due to MTN’s failure to pay interconnect charges owed to Exchange.
The NCC reviewed the situation and found MTN’s reasons for non-payment unsatisfactory.
After five days from December 27th, MTN will stop routing calls and data through Exchange and use other networks instead.
This shutdown will continue until the debt is settled, according to the NCC’s announcement.
The action is backed by the Nigerian Communications Act of 2003 and relevant guidelines.
