MTN Lines Barred, Sparking Subscriber Outrage
MTN has announced a barring of lines for some subscribers today, reportedly affecting those who have not updated their National Identity Number (NIN) as mandated by regulatory standards.
The telecommunications giant has advised impacted customers to visit service centers or use the online platform to update their details and restore service.
The move is part of MTN’s effort to comply with regulatory guidelines aimed at maintaining accurate customer records and enhancing security.
However, one long-time subscriber has expressed significant frustration after their line was barred without prior notice.
The customer, who has used their MTN line for over a decade and linked it to their NIN multiple times, feels this sudden action undermines their expectation of respect and dignity from the service provider.
MTN has not yet specifically addressed this case but reiterates its commitment to regulatory compliance and encourages affected users to update their information to restore their services.
It has been noted that the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) and British American Tobacco Nigeria Foundation (BATNF) plan to renew their partnership in agribusiness.
The new project is to involve youth in the agriculture business, widen their horizons, and educate them about the agritech sector.
The general manager shared that “The foundation is not only providing grants but also building a system of mentorship, structure, and support that enables corps members to see agribusiness as a serious enterprise pathway.” The plan is to use the NYSC platform to engage youths.
Idi Mukhtar Maiha, Minister of Livestock Development, has revealed the government’s intention of placing women in the livestock transformation agenda that they have in store for Nigeria.
During a recent event, he praised women, describing them as the backbone of the country, and shared that the country will keep on needing their support, hence the inclusion of the agenda team.
He also praised the First Lady for the impact she has made in the country so far and her advocacy for women’s empowerment.
