As MTN Nigeria braces for potential profit pressure if diesel prices remain above or rise beyond ₦2,000 ($1.45) per litre, the telecom operator is exploring a shift to gas and a broader energy mix to cut operating costs. In its latest Sustainability Report, MTN Nigeria said it saved ₦8.1 billion ($5.89 million) in 2025 by increasing its use of gas-powered electricity. However, diesel continues to dominate its energy mix, underscoring the structural challenge of powering telecom infrastructure in Nigeria. techcabal.com/2026/05/04/mtn…

Stitch, a South Africa-based payments infrastructure company, has launched a Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) product for merchants, expanding its platform to support instalment payments across merchants’ online and in-store channels. The company noted that the product would allow merchants to offer customers flexible repayment options at checkout by letting them choose their repayment schedule and split purchases between two and six instalments. While customers pay over time, Stitch said it would settle merchants the full purchase amount, minus fees, within 24 hours to remove the repayment uncertainty that makes instalment payments difficult to adopt. techcabal.com/2026/05/04/sti…

Fintechs like OPay and PalmPay built their dominance on reliability and speed. For years, failed transfers on bank apps and downtime pushed millions of Nigerians toward these fintech apps for everyday payments. Their adoption accelerated during the cash crunch triggered by the failed naira redesign policy of 2022. However, after years of heavy investment in core infrastructure, traditional banks are beginning to close the gap on speed and reliability, and it is starting to show in their numbers. techcabal.com/2026/05/04/fou…
