MTN made Nigeria loose 10,000 lives-Buhari

Speaking today at the joint conference with the visiting South African president, Jacob Zuma, President Buhari accrue blames to MTN saying the delay in the registration of sims by the communication company has cost the country 10,000 lives.

He also defended the Nigeria Communication Commission over the $3.9b fine the body asked MTN to pay.

"This is the first time I will personally as a president be making a public comment about it, the concern of the federal government is basically on the security and not the fine imposed on MTN".

"You know how the unregistered GSM are being used by terrorists. "And between 2009 and today, at least 10,000 Nigerians were killed by Boko Haram. That was why NCC asked MTN, Glo and the rest of them to register GSM. Unfortunately, MTN was very, very slow and contributed to the casualties"

The South African telecoms company, MTN, is however negotiating with the Nigerian government for a possible reduction of the N780 billion fine imposed on the firm because they fail to disconnect unregistered users.
