The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has issued a public notice approving the disconnection of Exchange Telecommunications Limited (Exchange) from MTN Nigeria Communications Limited (MTN) due to the non-settlement of interconnect charges.

The NCC, in a statement dated Friday, 27th December 2024, and signed by Reuben Muoka, director of Public Affairs, highlighted that Exchange was duly notified of the application for disconnection and provided with an opportunity to present its case. 

However, after a thorough review of the circumstances surrounding the unpaid charges, the Commission concluded that Exchange failed to provide sufficient justification for its non-payment.

The notice, which aligns with Section 100 of the Nigerian Communications Act, 2003, and the Guidelines for Procedure for Granting Approval to Disconnect Telecommunications Operators, 2012, states:

“At the expiration of 5 (Five) days from the date of this notice, MTN will discontinue passing voice and data traffic through Exchange and will, thereafter, utilise alternative channels in interconnecting with other Network Service Providers.”

With this decision, the Commission is focused on enforcing financial accountability and operational compliance within the sector. The NCC noted that the disconnection will remain in effect until otherwise determined by the Commission.

“Please note that this disconnection will subsist until otherwise determined by the Commission,” the notice read.

The NCC reiterated its focus on ensuring a fair and competitive environment, urging all stakeholders to adhere to their financial and operational obligations to avoid similar sanctions.
