Giant mobile Telecommunication network MTN, has reportedly put on hold, the contracts of some of their celebrity ambassadors – according to LIB, their reason for doing so may be because of the 300bn fine levied against them by the Nigerian government.
Below is how LIB shared the news:
“MTN Nigeria has suspended the ambassadorship of many of their ambassadors. Minus their regional ambassadors, Project Fame ambassadors including Iyanya, Praiz and Chidinma, and other ambassadors like Falz, Skales, Tekno and Nkem Owoh, everyone else has been suspended.
MTN told them that they had no roles for them at the moment and didn’t want to renew their contracts immediately. So right now, everything is pending.
Their reason? It may not be unconnected with the fact that the giant telecommunication company is paying over three hundred billion Naira fine to the Nigerian Govt for not disconnecting subscribers when they were supposed to.”
