Bro i worked in Karl's unit in MTN so i don't need to lie. Bros you obviously are daft to be insulting someone you don't know. Just make correction like a reasonable human being and don't abuse like a robotic troll.

In one line you said you worked in Karl's unit inn MTN when he was an SM, in another line you are begging me to make corrections without insulting you even though you are a smelling liar. Karl has his profile on LinkedIn. Go and check it and stop lying...

obynzo:

Truth is hard to hide.

I thought you said compared to other countries, Nigeria was the highest? You see how you peddle wrong info?

DelTel:


49% increase in data revenue in Q4 2020 (not even YoY).

Is the company not making over N100 billion monthly or not?

https://nairametrics.com/2020/07/30/2020-q2-mtn-nigeria-revenues-rises-to-over-n100-billion-monthly/#:~:text=MTN%20Nigeria%20reported%20a%20half,second%20quarters%20of%20the%20year.

Please provide your correct info Mr.

When you are discussing Financials of a company, state it as it is. Don't try to mislead people or embellish the facts.
You wrote this "A company with 49% increase in revenue YoY", this is different from "49% increase in data revenue in Q4 2020".
The company is not making 100bn a month because revenue of 100bn a month is different from profit of 100bn a month. That is why you should stop looking at revenue and look at other indicators like EBITDA which tells a better story than the story revenue tells!

DelTel:


Are the SMEs not paying for the service or is it free?

A company with 49% increase in revenue YoY making over N100 billion revenue a month is dying?

Can you tell us how many companies in Nigeria is not faced with all the challenges you aforementioned. Don't banks, corporate organisations run 3-4 generators, don't SMEs pay multiple taxes too! Even hawkers, cart-pushers are extorted by area boys!

But tell me how many companies get Forex at low rate in Nigeria and if MTN is not one of them.

Your excuses are lame sir, MTN should operate ethically and according to the law. If other Telcos are profitable, what is stopping the widely acclaimed market leader (lest I forget, it's inefficiency!).

49% increase in revenue Oga easy with lies, MTN's financials are in the open, please go and check and stop dropping wrong information!

DelTel:


I am flabbergasted to say the least. Is it not revenue that ultimately leads to profit for an efficient organisation; or are the figures I mentioned wrong? .

Jokes apart, what is the concern of SMEs when a market leader can not play and run its business according to the law of the land they operate making MTN EBITDA bad compared to competitors. So SMEs should be punished for MTN's inefficiency and fines (and bribery)!

A company has responsibilities to different segments, be it, staffers, shareholders, suppliers, society, government; including SMEs especially for a big corporate like MTN or SMEs did not aid their expansion and penetration.

You asked what is the concern of SMEs?? It concerns SMEs and others when the market leader changes strategy and decides to be more efficient. Efficiency is reducing the profit banks make on sale of recharge card from N4 to N2.5 per N100 recharge card sold.
The banks say they won't sell and MTN shifted to Fintechs who are ready to sell at MTN's new price. So what is the issue here? Are the fintechs not also SMEs? One door close, another door open ooh. E no dey hard

Yankee101:
This is where the fintechs became rich and the banks poorer for it

Leave the banks, they will eventually eat the humble pie

DelTel:


So a behemoth company making billions in profit from Nigerians should muzzle and kill SMEs out of life/business? (I stated earlier I don't care about the banks). Of course, your financial literacy school did not teach you SMEs are the bedrock of any nation's economy.

I see you claim to be financial literate but does not know MTN Nigeria is not only profitable (with revenues risen to over N100 billion monthly in 2020 with half-year revenues of N638 billion in 2020 as the MTN Nigeria made a 49% growth in data revenues in the second quarter of 2020) but also unaffected by covid19 lockdown as its Nigerian customers guzzled more data in the ensuing Covid19 and EndSars economic shutdown. I will not even go to the dollars repatriation brouhaha (still ongoing if you care to know).

Have you also compared calls and data rates across the market MTN operates in Africa and find out which country pays the highest and most profitable.

To your first question, I live and run a business in Nigeria and with thought-process like yours, then no hope for the common man (woe betides common man if someone like you gets to position of authority someday).

Happy Easter.

The so called SMEs you are crying about are running on Telecoms infrastructure, should the Telecos die for the SMEs to live? It is business and not a charity organisation. Shareholders took risks and invested money in the Telecos, so the management needs to ensure shareholders are making money, same way the banks and SMEs shareholders want to also make profit.
In the markets you are comparing, find out if Telecos there have two Generators per base station running 12 hours each. Find out the power situation there.
Find out if there are arbitrary taxes by the central Government, State Government, local government and even non state actors like Youth associations, community development associations and Agbero.
In summary, the cost of doing business in Nigeria and the exchange rate makes things more expensive here.

In all the revenue figures you are quoting, What is MTN Nigeria's EBITDA margin? Why are you looking at revenue only? What is MTN's EBITDA Margin compared to its closest rival Airtel? Compare the EBITDA and maybe you will understand why MTN Nigeria is looking for where to cut cost and improve efficiency!

Quite interesting to see people MTN on this, has MTN reduced calls or data rates or any of their services to justify the reduction in commission rate.

What reason(s) has MTN provided to reduce commission arbitrarily whereas other Telcos didn't.

The new platforms they are promoting are just smokescreens, MTN has agenda they are working on to push everyone out of the market. While I am less bothered about the banks, I am for the SMEs (or are you unaware roadside, paper-based and e-recharge commission is also affected).

The same matter is brewing with electricity companies, they keep reducing commission for SMEs whereas the electricity rate keeps going up.

MTN don't want anyone to make money in their space (every unit in MTN boost of cost reduction), whereas same MTN is encroaching other market space i.e selling inverter.

How a South African company plans to kill SMEs and Nigerians are in baffles me.

It is either you don't live in Nigeria or you are a financial illiterate not to understand cost of doing business in Nigeria has sky rocketed in the last one year, that businesses are looking inwards to cut cost and remain profitable.
Same period last year, dollar was N360, dollar is N485 today. Businesses are increasing price of products and services, Coca-Cola just increased the price of soft drinks to N120, fast food outlets increased prices of snacks, Hotels have increased prices of their room rate.
Telecos on the other hand can't increase Tariff like other businesses because NCC is regulating prices in the Telecoms sector. If Telecos can't increase prices, they need to look inwards to cut cost and remain profitable. Hence the sales discount reduction, this will go along way to improve MTN's balance sheet.
You might ask is it only MTN that is affected by the harsh business environment in Nigeria that they are reducing sales discount? The bigger the head, the bigger the problem. MTN is the market leader, so naturally they will lead and others will follow. If MTN is able to resist the banks, watch out for other Telecos to also reduce sales discount.

chinchum:
your link is laughable . the link is from August 2020 and talking about an impeachment in August 2020. The lawmakers were elected by peoples vote in April 2019 but were not inaugurated since because the governor felt they were not his loyalist. I guess i understand more than you then.

You are a very dull person. Is August not last month? The article chronicles how the crisis started and how it got to the current point. Or you are too academically lazy to read and understand?

chinchum:
Too bad, i like his sagacity , foresight and intelligence. I still wonder why the governor decided to fight him that brutally. Man's worst enemies are of his household, they exposed him to ridicule from external APC forces who dislike his gut from outside his state. From i what i gathered he performed relatively well as a governor in Edo state. You lose to win some other time. APC lost his first staggered gubernatorial election at the polls immediately he was booted as APC chairman. He was close to indomitable, i am so certain APC would not have lost if he was still the chairman. He is a great leader.

I don't know much about edo politics, but i know this much that the current Edo state governor erred greatly by preventing over 12 or 14 state elected APC house of assembly from being sworn in because he thinks they are loyal to Oshiomole. If a Godfather is benevolent and intelligent, you don't discard them. I was waiting to hear Obaseki mention where Oshiomole was demanding billions from him till vain, all i could infer was BETRAYAL.

I am sensible enough to decipher that the bulk of the hatred hauled at Oshiomole are coming from PDP party and loyalist.

I am happy you agreed you don't know about Edo politics.
Read this article that chronicles the House of Assembly issue. It will help you understand the issue better.
