The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has said it has not renewed the Universal Access Service (UAS) licence of Nigerian Mobile Network MTN as reported in the media.
NCC is a statement by its Director, Public Affairs, Dr Ikechukwu Adinde, said “the attention of the Nigerian Communications Commission has been drawn to a publication in an online media entitled “Govt renews MTN Nigeria licence amid 20 years of GSM Phones” to the effect that the mobile operating license of MTN has been renewed by the Commission for another period of ten years.
“The online publication which cited regulatory filings by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) as its source, stated that “MTN Nigeria, the nation’s largest mobile network operator (MNO), has secured regulatory approval of the renewal of its operating licence for another 10 years with effect from September 1, 2021.”.
NCC, however, stated that while MTN Nigeria has applied for the renewal of the Universal Access and Service (UASL) License granted to it by the Commission, the application is yet to be approved as it is still undergoing the required regulatory processes.
