Foremost telecommunications network gave its subscribers a massive headache today following a protracted glitch.
Subscribers’ devices in many locations went silent and failed to respond to repeated rebooting.
The situation remained for hours until service returned in the evening.
Many subscribers took to Twitter to express their frustration. It is there they found out that it was a general problem.
“My MTN” is still trending at the time of filing this report as many subscribers either tongue-lashed MTN or made a joke out of the situation.
A Twitter user, @_theladymo, wrote “My MTN sim went totally off, is it only me?”
@_PLICE: “I have been turning my phone and airplane mode off and on for like 12mins thinking it was a personal issue. Not knowing my MTN line has become useless and my SIM card has become plantain chips.
Nah, a lovely thunder has to fire MTN”.
@BusayoOtebata: “If this my MTN data finish, na to go buy new sim
I’m done with you guys 🙏🙏🙏”
@Nabi_a7: “Me to my MTN today. God will judge you people @MTNNG”
Some Tweeps seized the opportunity to make jokes.
@BeLikeShane: “Pranked my babe it’s over, MY MTN went blank”
Another one posted a meme of gratitude and captioned it: “Me to My MTN after saving me from oppression today cause I couldn’t view status”.
