The House of Representatives Committee on Communications investigating the Telecommunication providers on the massive loss of jobs, revenue and other sharp practices in the Telecoms industry on Wednesday issued an ultimatum of next week for five Chief Executive Officers, CEOs of the companies to appear before it on the allegations or face the wrath of the law.
The affected service providers are Mobile Telecommunications Network (MTN), Global Communications (Glo), Airtel, Etisalat and Ntel.
The Committee chaired by Hon Saheed Fijabi-Akinade handed down the ultimatum in Abuja yesterday at the resumed hearing of the investigation during which none of the CEOs of the affected companies earlier invited to appear before the committee to defend the allegations against them.
All the service providers were represented by other officers who requested for more time to enable them search for relevant documents required by the Committee, a situation which the committee condemned and described as unacceptable to the parliament.
The Representatives of the service providers in their submissions said that CEOS were unavoidably absent due to one reason or the other and pleaded for more time to collate all the relevant documents needed before the Committee for defence.
