Nawao!See List Of The Banks That Took Over Etisalat

One of Nigeria’s telecommunication companies, Etisalat has now been taken over by ten major Nigerian lenders.

5. Fidelity Bank

6. Access Bank,

7. Ecobank,

The take-over came as a result of a futile effort by Emerging Markets Telecommunications Services, EMTS, promoted by-one time Chairman, United Bank for Africa, UBA, Hakeem Bello-Osagie, to reach agreement with the banks on debt restructuring plan in the protracted $1.72 billion (about N541.8 billion) debt impasse.
