MTN Nigeria Addresses Data Depletion Issues at Event

On June 6, 2026, MTN Nigeria organized an event at MTN Plaza in Ikoyi, Lagos, to address the ongoing issue of data depletion affecting Nigerian consumers. The event, moderated by media personality Ebuka Obi Uchendu, featured discussions with various stakeholders, including lawyer Timi Agbaj, digital content creator Fisayo Fosudo, and lifestyle content creator Yemisi Odusanya.

Karl Toriola, Chief Executive Officer of MTN Nigeria, acknowledged that questions surrounding data consumption remain a persistent issue in the telecommunications industry. The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has intervened multiple times, conducting audits and encouraging consumers to monitor their data usage closely.

Despite these efforts, complaints about billing accuracy and data depletion continue to be widespread among users of all major networks, including MTN, Airtel, Glo, and 9mobile. The discussions highlighted the complexities of data consumption in a digital world, emphasizing the need for greater transparency and understanding among consumers.
