MTN GhanaChallenges

• Multiple and continuous Fibre cuts present massive QOS and availability challenges,

• Preventative maintenance isn’t enough

• Education of communities on the significance of the infrastructure

• Communication to filter down to operators from Metropolitan assemblies regarding construction in the vicinity of our ROW’s

• Soil erosion

• Building ring protection is costly, but seems to not be enough


• Improving legislation to respect our ROW’s,

• Customs on imported equipment for fibre expansion necessarily escalate pricing,

Thank You!
