Earlier this week, there was a publication circulating on social media that MTN, has published the names and faces of its Qwikloan defaulters in the Dialy Graphic.

The publication which read “We Beg Pay Us”, sparked a controversy on social media as social media users started questioning the company’s professionalism.

However, MTN has indicated in a press statement that the publication is a hoax.

According to the company, it had nothing to do with the “We beg Pay Us”, publication which has been photoshopped .

The company further stated that, the Qwickloan service is provided by a third party and as such defaulters will be engaged by the third part where necessary.
