Telecoms and data market leader MTN Ghana has launched its fibre broadband to the home and office in Accra.
Dubbed MTN Fibre Broadband, the service is billed to provide high-speed internet access and can facilitate live streaming of online TV channels or Video on Demand, home and office automation including security services, among others.
Speaking at the event, Deputy Minister for Communications, Nenyi George Andah said “Broadband access has now become a critical infrastructure requirement because of its direct impact on the development of an information society in this digital age and is increasingly becoming the emphasis for unlocking and accelerating knowledge and technology based economies, as well as enabling GDP growth.”
He said the Ministry is therefore excited to see private sector stakeholders like MTN take such giant steps in pursuit of initiatives, which will ultimately serve as a foundation for the achievement of not only individual but national goals.
General Manager for MTN Business, Mr. Sam Addo said “We firmly believe that everyone deserves the benefit of a modern connected world and we are not stopping till every home is served. Our goal is to provide our customers affordable and reliable services.”
The Fibre to the Home festival launch also marked the introduction of a number of promos for both existing and new customers of MTN Ghana.
MTN said existing customers, from January 1st to March 2018, who take part in point based promotion on FTTH Data usage stand the chance of winning amazing prizes such as Mobile phones, Routers, Modems, Souvenirs etc, while new customers who connect to the broadband network, will be given free installation and free bundle equivalent to the current subscription and a sign-up surprise among others.
The MTN Home Festival started from the 18th of December 2017 and will end 18th of March 2018.
With about 17 million voice subscribers, MTN Ghana has been at the forefront of innovations within the telecoms industry. The fiber broadband service will also promote economic development and services and enhance the quality of life of Ghanaians.
