Facts have emerged that Mafab Communications Limited which won the auction for 5G spectrum alongside MTN Nigeria was registered in 2020 with the Corporate Affairs Commission, CAC.
The company was registered on July 8, 2020 with address at No. 8A Ibiyinka Olorunbo Close, Off Amodu Ojikutu Street, Victoria Island with registration number 1684039.
This explains why many rated it a dark horse in a competition with two established telecom giants, MTN Nigeria and Airtel.
Mafab is promoted and owned by a quiet magnate, Dr Musbahu Muhammad Bashir, who is the Chairman of Althani Group of companies, and Cobalt International Services Limited since 2004.
