OPEN LETTER TO MTN.
Dear MTN,
I write this letter with so much pain.
On January 1 2012, GEJ Government took Nigerians
by surprise on New Year Day with their fuel subsidy
wahala. Little did we know that you guys were
jealous of the attention we gave them.
On January 4 2014, I gave a recharge card vendor a
#200 note in exchange for #200 worth of MTN
airtime but she returned the money to me saying I
will need to balance her extra #20. I walked up to
another vendor and the same thing happened. On
further investigations, I found out that you, MTN
had topped an additional #10 to your #100, #200,
and #400 airtime packages.
We have been told by MTN that the cost of those
tools they have been using in torturing has risen and
as such, we should pay extra #10 to make up for
this.
I'm tempted to ask, why the sudden price
increment? To rid off customers? To offer us good
service? Or is MTN broke? Are you not the one that
gave out an invisible aeroplane to an eighteen year
old female subscriber a year ago thereby
converting her from a studen to a pilot? Are you
not the one that usually give two million naira to
lucky subscribers daily IF and ONLY IF he/she will
text WIN to 33314? Are you not the one that gave
CHRISTY a Toyota Camry because she texted YES
to 7070? Are you not the one that gave OGECHI a
Honda four weeks ago because she texted WIN to
5050?
What of the #100 that was deducted from my sim
and that of other innocent subscribers after MTN
informed us via SMS that Nigeria's flag is green,
white, gree? Are you not the one that offered us
#400 airtime (though your terrible network didn't
let us utilise the airtime before you took it back
from us two days after) free of charge because we
updated our sim registration details?
Last year, I was walked out of an examination hall
by the supervisors because my phone rang. One
missed call from 180. Those yellows guys have
hypnotised me. I can't count the number of times
I've gone to a mobile shop to get another line but
walked out after 30 minutes with another MTN sim.
I gave it all. The 0803, the 0806, the 0703, the 0706,
the 0813, and the 0810 numbers.
MTN were the first to send me a new year SMS.
They had me googling if I mistakenly killed late
Nelson Mandela. (My number had not rested coz I
refused to subscribed for Mandela's callertunes). I
wake up every morning with a good morning SMS
from MTN N informing me of my chance to win One
Million Naira before the day is over. I go to bed
every night with my good night SMS from MTN N
informing me that I may not have been lucky today
but tomorrow is another day.
Finally, why didn't you ask for my approval before
the #10 subsidy issue? Some of you may be thinking
that am jobless because of my 800 words article
just because of #10. If #10 is taken out of your
One Million Naira, would you still be called a
millionaire?
