Subscribers’ Group Threatens to Sue Telcos over Proposed Tariff Hike

Adeolu Ogunbanjo, national president, National Association of Telecommunications Subscribers (NATCOMS), said that his group plans to file a class-action lawsuit if the telecom operators proceed with the hike without first exploring alternative revenue-generating methods.
