The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) says it has issued a November 16, 2015 deadline to MTN Nigeria to pay the N1 trillion penalty it imposed on the mobile operator for failing to disconnect 5.2 million unregistered SIM cards on its network. Mr. Tony Ojobo, Director, Public Affairs of NCC told the AFP: “The deadline set for the payment of the fine is November 16.” “The key issue is if MTN breached the law or not.
