MTN Dissociate Itself From Politically Branded-Recharge Cards

Telecommunication service provider, MTN Nigeria has distance itself from recharge cards that surfaced online branded by different political party logo and colours.

The company said: “As a corporate organisation MTN is non-political and non-partisan. MTN Nigeria does not have any arrangement with any political party to produce specially branded recharge cards or merchandise. We also do not have any affiliation with any political party or organisation, either in Nigeria or in any of the 22 countries where MTN operates across Africa and the Middle East.”

The company explained that they have partnerships with third-party retailers to sell the cards but even at that, no cards are to be branded.

Part of the statement released by the company also read: “Operators and their authorized partners are allowed to sell logical PINs to dealers and trade partners, who in turn retail them to third parties and members of the public who may also wish to/reprint them for their private/commercial use.”

“We will take all prudent steps to ensure that dealers conform to agreed trade practices consistent with statute and policies governing the Industry.”

  1. With common sense. Its obvious a multi-national company that knows its core will never partner with political parties to produce branded-vouchers
