Some Nigerian lenders have cut off MTN Nigeria from their banking platforms, making it impossible for millions of customers to buy credit for their phones. All lenders in Africa’s most populous country, except Zenith Bank, have taken MTN Nigeria off their platform, said Funso Aina, spokesman for the telecommunications company. The banks took the action after MTN reduced the commission paid to lenders for allowing customers use their platform to buy call credit, Aina said. Airtime sales are suspended through all banking channels -- banking apps, USSD codes and even debit cards. MTN is the West African nation’s biggest telecom services provider with about 79 million subscribers.
