Telecoms firm MTN has closed its offices nationwide.
Yello customer, please be informed that our shops nationwide will be closed today, 30th July 2024,” the company said on its customer support X handle.
MTN, however, directed its customers to use their “digital channels” for support.
While it did not indicate the reason for the closure, the move came barely 24 hours after aggrieved customers vandalised MTN’s office in the Festac area of Lagos.
The aggrieved customers whose lines were disconnected for defaulting in the NIN-SIM linkage policy had stormed the office to complain over the move. But in viral videos some of them were seen pulling the office’s fence.
It took the intervention of police authorities in Lagos State to restore normalcy to the area.
