NCC filed criminal charges against MTN, Karl Toriola, its CEO, Nkeakam Abhulimen, Fun Mobile Ltd. and Yahaya Maibe, alleging copyright infringement
“No doubt, infringers have sent many copyright owners to an early grave and pauperised uncountable numbers,” said Rockson Igelige, a lawyer.
NCC claimed MTN and others used Mr Maleke’s music and sound recordings, with subsisting copyright, as caller ringback tunes without the artiste’s authorisation.
MTN Nigeria has revealed it paid the federal government N95.5 billion for 2020 company income tax (CIT) amid claims of tax indebtedness to the government.
Mr. Irabor made the call when he received a telecoms chief in his office.
