MTN Nigeria will hold a public inquiry titled Data on Trial on June 6, 2026. The company is subjecting its data management and billing processes to public scrutiny to address complaints regarding rapid data depletion. This initiative aims to enhance transparency and rebuild customer trust following allegations of unfair deductions.
The public nominated and voted for a five-member prosecution team to represent consumers. This team will question the company’s technical panel during a live broadcast across multiple platforms.
The move responds to intensified subscriber complaints following a tariff hike in 2025. MTN Nigeria intends for the hearing to provide clarity on its specific data charging mechanisms.
