MTN Nigeria

MTN Nigeria stands as the cornerstone of the nation’s digital ecosystem, commanding over 50 per cent market share with more than 84.6 million subscribers and handling the majority of voice and SMS traffic. It has gone far beyond connectivity, launching Ayoba, scaling Y’ello TV, and digitising customer experience via the MTN App.

Crucially, MTN Mobile Money, also known as MoMo, has become a national force, onboarding millions into the formal financial system and enabling secure instant payments, transfers, and merchant services across urban and rural Nigeria. MTN further reinforced national resilience by leading repairs of critical undersea cables and powering enterprises with cloud, IoT, and dedicated data solutions. As the interconnection hub for the telecom sector, it ensures seamless nationwide communication, MoMo in particular exemplifies MTN’s shift from infrastructure provider to digital enabler, driving financial inclusion, SME growth, and cashless adoption at scale.

None of this would have been possible, or trusted at scale, without an uncompromising commitment to premium quality across every product and service. MTN is not just supporting Nigeria’s digital future. It is actively financing and building it.
