A Customer was awarded N530,000 by Federal High Court After MTN Did This To His Line…

MTN Nigeria will cough out N530,000 for a customer following a ruling by a federal high court in Ibadan.

The Federal High Court in Ibadan on Wednesday awarded N530,000 to Oluwole Aluko for unauthorised deduction from his mobile lines by MTN, Nigeria.

In his judgment, Justice Nathaniel Ayo-Emmanuel, held that MTN had admitted guilt by not challenging the action.

He said, “The plaintiff has the right to allow or reject the use of a caller tune. MTN cannot force the use of any caller tune on him or anybody because it is unlawful.

“Though the plaintiff sought N10m as damages, but I hold that any damage suffered must be commensurate with the claim.

“I, hereby, award a cost of N500,000 for the damages suffered and another N30,000 as cost incurred during the court process.”

The plaintiff, who is also the counsel in the case, had in 2016 instituted a N10m suit against MTN.

He claimed that the communication company unlawfully made series of deductions from three of his MTN lines for caller tunes he did not subscribe to.

However, Mr Fatiullah Tiamiyu, the defence counsel, denied that MTN was not served any court process.

“That is the reason the company has not been represented in any previous sitting,” he said.

The new movie which is exclusively sponsored by the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) will be aired on Nigerian television stations. Speaking through spokesperson, Lukas Rieder, the authority revealed that one of the causes of illegal migration is the lack of information or false information. “Human traffickers tell potential migrants that Switzerland is paradise, it’s El Dorado. But that’s not true. We want to provide objective information about the dangers of passage, and the dangers of living in Switzerland.” The movie, titled Missing Steps, tells the story of a 20-something-year-old university-educated protagonist. He gets into debt and flees to the landlocked European state to solve his financial problems, with the help of traffickers. But he is denied asylum by the Swiss authorities, and deported to ...
