According to him, MTN Nigeria needed more protection than actions that could scare it away from investing in the country.
Shittu was reacting to the probe of MTN by the Senate Committee on Banking over allegations that it illegally transferred $13.9 billion out of Nigeria to its host country, South Africa.
Let them leave! They are economic vampires. Same with Dstv.
ReplyDeleteThe Minister is economical with the truth. This is is the same way we give leeway to foreign company and allow them to violate our laws. If MTN is found guilty of illegal transfer of funds, then, the company is guilty and any judgment meted on it is appropriate. If at the end it decided to leave the Nigerian shore, it's welcome. The Minister should not advocate for MTN, except there's something we're not being told.
ReplyDeleteThe minister is right. The senate is only trying to blackmail the company into giving them their own cut. If the company breached any laws why not report it to the right authorities to prosecute them? Yeye dey smell.
