The Nigerian Communications Commission NCC says that telecommunications company MTN will have to pay a $3.9 billion fine for failing to disconnect users with unregistered SIM cards by Dec. 31. ‘Appropiate action will be taken’ should MTN fail to meet the deadline, a source at NCC told Reuters.

Meanwhile MTN has filed a suit at the Federal High Court in Lagos challenging NCC over the fine imposed on them.
