Background of the Study
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are measurable values used by organizations to assess how effectively they are achieving their strategic objectives. In telecommunications, KPIs are particularly important for monitoring service delivery, customer satisfaction, network performance, and financial health (Nwankwo & Adebayo, 2024). MTN Nigeria, one of the largest telecom operators in Nigeria, uses KPIs to gauge its performance and drive organizational growth. The company operates in a highly competitive and dynamic industry, where customer expectations are continually evolving, and regulatory pressures are high. KPIs allow MTN Nigeria to align its operations with strategic goals, ensuring that it remains a market leader while driving profitability and customer loyalty.
In recent years, MTN Nigeria has focused on leveraging KPIs to improve service delivery, expand its customer base, and maintain operational efficiency. With the rapid expansion of mobile data usage and the rise of digital services in Nigeria, MTN faces increasing pressure to maintain a competitive edge while optimizing its resources. The application of KPIs in managing operations, marketing strategies, customer service, and financial performance is essential for driving the company's growth (Eze & Oloyede, 2025). However, there is a need for more in-depth research into how these KPIs influence organizational growth, particularly within the Nigerian context.
This study seeks to evaluate the role of KPIs in driving organizational growth at MTN Nigeria. By examining the impact of KPIs on various aspects of the company’s operations, including market share, customer satisfaction, and financial performance, the research will contribute to a better understanding of how performance metrics can be used to achieve long-term business success in the telecommunications sector.
Statement of the Problem
MTN Nigeria, despite being a market leader in the telecommunications industry, faces increasing competition, shifting consumer preferences, and regulatory challenges. While the company uses KPIs to measure performance, the impact of these indicators on organizational growth remains unclear. The growing importance of digital services and the changing landscape of mobile communications in Nigeria necessitate a more comprehensive understanding of how KPIs contribute to strategic decision-making and business expansion.
This study aims to address the gap by evaluating how well MTN Nigeria’s KPIs align with the company’s growth objectives and how these indicators have been leveraged to drive performance across various operational and financial aspects.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

Limitations include potential biases in interpreting data from corporate sources and the challenge of measuring the direct causal impact of KPIs on growth due to the presence of external factors.
