MINISTER of Communication
Technology, Mr. Adebayo Shittu, on Wednesday said that legislative process in
the National Assembly (NASS) was halting the progress over payment of the
balance of the N1.04 trillion fine imposed on MTN Nigeria as sanctions over its
failure to beat the deadline earmarked by the regulatory body, Nigerian
Communications Commission, NCC since last year.
“Those of us expected to make comments decided
to withhold our comments because we know that whatever we do, will invariably
be subject to the outcome of this investigation by the lawmakers. So for me,
that is the reason why we have not yet made greater progress.
“And as you would have seen
yesterday the process of legislative investigation is still ongoing and once it
is concluded I hope positively that we get things going and I think the matter
will be put behind us”, he said.
