The House of Representatives is summoning major telecom operators over persistent poor network services in Nigeria, issuing a seven-day ultimatum for executives to appear before a parliamentary committee. The summons is tied to a public hearing in Abuja and warns that non-compliance could lead to further legal action to compel attendance.
All outlets name the targeted companies, including MTN, Airtel and Globacom, and also include Mafab Communications in at least some of the reporting. Premium Times and The Punch describe the threat of summons for arrest if chief executives do not honour the invitation, while Vanguard and Daily Post Nigeria frame the measure as an ultimatum linked to the committee’s investigation.
The articles agree on the core event—summoning telecom CEOs over network quality—and the emphasis on enforcement. They differ mainly in how many companies are listed, whether additional details about potential arrest summons are highlighted, and whether a specific appearance date is mentioned.
