MTN Nigeria wishes to inform its customers of a scheduled network maintenance activity aimed at permanently restoring a previously damaged fiber infrastructure along the AFCOT–Bawo Village route in Adamawa state. The maintenance work will impact 101 sites in 15 LGAs across Adamawa, Borno and Kano states.
The areas are:
· Kano State: Nasarawa LGA,
· Adamawa State: Girei, Song, Mubi North, Hong, Gombi, Fufore, Mubi South, Madagali, Michika, Maiha, Chibok and Yola North LGA
· Borno State: Askira/UBA and Shani LGA
The maintenance will involve cutting over traffic to a newly installed fiber infrastructure. This upgrade is necessary to eliminate damaged fiber spans and improve overall network stability.
Maintenance Details:
Date: Saturday, 24th August 2025
Time: 6:00 AM – 8:00 AM
Impact: Temporary service disruption affecting 101 sites across 15 LGAs, including 2G, 3G, 4G, and 10 enterprise services.
Due to the linear and unprotected nature of the route, services will be interrupted during the maintenance window. The work will be carried out during daylight hours for security reasons.
MTN regrets any inconvenience this may cause and appreciates your understanding as we work to improve service quality and reliability.
