MTN Nigeria has been honoured with the MTN Group Award for Sustained Improved Risk and Control Environment at the MTN Group’s 2025 Global Leadership Gathering (GLG), an annual event where the telecoms giant recognises excellence across its operations.
At a gala dinner marking the close of GLG 2025, MTN Group announced the winners of the Million Dollar Challenge for 2024.
Among the accolades, MTN Nigeria’s award underscores its ongoing commitment to strengthening risk management practices and enhancing operational stability across its markets.
MTN Nigeria which currently accounts for 51.79% of Nigeria’s telecoms market share, according to statistics obtained from Nigeria’s telecoms industry regulator, is the second largest market of MTN group, contributing 23.0% to the group’s overall service revenue as at Q3 2024.
The GLG event, which gathers senior executives from over 20 African markets, offers the group a chance to reflect on the company’s progress.
“Every year,” the telecoms group says, “MTN hosts a leadership gathering (GLG) that offers us the chance to reflect on our progress, recalibrate our strategies, and renew our commitment to advancing digital and financial solutions for Africa. This special time allows us to connect with colleagues from across our markets.”
“We move with purpose. We lead with impact,” Ralph Mupita, MTN Group President & CEO told attendees at the annual meeting. “This is how we build. This is how we lead. The future isn’t waiting—neither are we.”
