Telecoms giant, MTN, has closed all its stores and service centers across Nigeria in response to widespread outrage from subscribers. The move comes after the company barred several lines on Sunday, sparking anger and frustration among its customers.
The sudden shutdown of MTN’s offices nationwide is seen as a precautionary measure to prevent potential attacks on staff and property. The company has not issued an official statement explaining the reason for the SIM blocking, which has left many subscribers unable to make or receive calls.
Subscribers took to social media to express their dissatisfaction, with many calling for a boycott of the network. The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has yet to comment on the situation.
The shutdown of MTN’s offices has caused inconvenience to customers who need assistance with their accounts or services. The company’s website and online platforms remain operational, but customers are advised to contact customer care via email or social media for support.
The situation is developing, and further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
