MTN Nigeria has been actively educating traders and other subscribers about managing their data usage, following numerous complaints and misunderstandings about unauthorised data consumption.

MTN held a launch event for its "Data Truth" campaign in Mile 3 Market, Port Harcourt, where they explained the technicalities of data usage. Terry Igho, a representative from the company's partner firm, Multinz Communications Company, stated that the campaign aimed to educate different user groups, including traders, students, and high-value segments.
He emphasized that many users are unaware that certain apps continue running in the background, consuming data even when not in use. MTN also highlighted the impact of higher-quality video streaming and changes in technology on data consumption. The company advised subscribers to regularly close background applications, reduce video streaming, and adjust their device settings to prevent unwanted data usage.
