A mob of angry customers have attacked and destroyed properties belonging to MTN Nigeria at their office located at Wetheral Road Owerri, Imo State.

The unrest started as a result of the growing number of customers whose lines have been blocked by the telecommunications company recently as well as the low number of people attending to them.
