Labour, under the aegis of Private Telecommunications and Communications Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PTECSSAN), an affiliate of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), has threatened to mobilise its members and shut down operations of the MTN Nigeria over alleged anti-labour activities. The union warned that such actions portend great danger to the industrial relations clime within MTN Nigeria. The statement read: “MTN practices an unwholesome, insensitive and discriminatory structure in the emoluments of some categories of workers. It is becoming pervasive in MTN Nigeria as well. “Once again, we reinstate that if our demands are not fully and appropriately complied with by MTN Nigeria Telecommunications Limited on or before the next 14 days from today, we shall withdraw every guarantee of industrial peace within MTN Nigeria.
