I don’t want to believe that the Nigeria telecom sector is also experiencing downturn?

No, impossible!. Upon all the money laundry allegations levelled against them (MTN in quote).

Nigerian largest telecommunication company is about to add to the myriad of predicaments experience by the masses by charging for share and sell services. According to a reliable source within the company, this service will go live from 31st January, 2017.

This honestly needs to be looked into by the regulatory body before it becomes a virus on its own within the whole telecom sector of the country.
