We present the 2021 Sustainability Report of MTN Nigeria Communications Plc. This report provides clear and comprehensive communication of the company’s commitments to positive long-term social, environmental, and economic goals. It discloses the progress and achievements of MTN Nigeria in a wide range of areas, spanning environmental responsibility, social impact, risk management, stakeholder engagements, and other mission-delivery objectives in 2021.

This report presents our robust sustainability commitments. Over and above that, it demonstrates a fundamental transition to pursuing greener and more socially inclusive practices as a central corporate agenda. We also showcase, in this report, significant improvements in how we manage risks, harness new market

opportunities, and establish our sustainability leadership.

We cannot conceivably tackle all sustainability-related challenges, nor address the whole range of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. Hence, our materiality assessment has enabled us to identify topics that are significant to our operations and pertinent to our stakeholders, and we are prioritizing them for action.

This sustainability report is also based on our commitment to the 10 Principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), which align with our human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption responsibilities. Our efforts are also helping the advancement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Nigeria.

We believe everyone deserves

the benefits of a modern

connected life.

Hence, our strategic intent is to provide leading digital solutions for Nigeria’s progress. Our products and services include a diverse range of voice, data, fintech, digital, enterprise, and wholesale services.

Our business strategy, Ambition 2025, is built on four strategic priorities:

At the core of this strategy, we plan to mainstream ESG standards in our operations to help us deliver our shared value objectives..

The philosophy of shared value guides our decisions and actions. Therefore, we believe in sharing our successes with all our stakeholders and the communities where we operate. In addition, we recognize that the growth of our business is tied to the well-being of people in these communities.

We are committed to the Nigerian economy’s growth and our people’s progress. We understand this is possible with our connectivity and platform solutions and the support we provide for our communities. The opportunity to play a role in the nation’s digital evolution is a privilege we do not take for granted. At MTN Nigeria, we recognize the need to address the considerable gaps in access to connectivity, build a vibrant digital economy, create jobs, and enrich lives.

In addition, our network directly supports many businesses and empowers millions of people in rural and urban areas. This has helped to fuel innovation, expand market access, build capability, enhance local content and drive prosperity, social inclusion and sustainability in Nigeria.

We have made great strides together, and much more must be done. If the last two decades have taught us anything, it is how much we can achieve when we work together.

Build the largest and most valuable platforms.

Drive industry-leading connectivity operations.

Create shared value.

Accelerate portfolio transformation.

If the last two decades have taught us anything, it is how much we can achieve when we work together.
