GT extends Broadband 4U Internet
services to Wa
WA, July 10, GNA - Telephone subscribers in the Upper West
Region owe Ghana Telecom (GT) 1.5 billion cedis (150,000 GH
cedis) whose recovery is urgently required to ensure that
the region gets the best of services and coverage of the new
products that are being introduced by the company.
Officials of GT said this to newsmen at Wa on Monday at the
launch of Company's Broadband 4U service, a new product
designed by the company to offer high-speed Internet access
to its clients through a fixed phone line.
Alhaji Issahaku Alhassan, Upper West Regional Deputy
Coordinating Director who launched the facility on behalf of
Mr Ambrose Dery, the Regional Minster, urged prospective
subscribers not to use the facility to engage in fraud and
other cyber crimes.
Development in modern society, he said, was technology based
and therefore the crave for Internet facilities should be
used to acquire knowledge and skills in all spheres for
advancement.
He appealed to GT to extend the facility to other districts
in the region.
Mr Dela Kayi, Media Manager for Fixed Networks Services of
the Company, said the new product was part of GT vision to
bring Internet services to schools, churches, and
communities to enable them access a wide range of resources
that could have positive impact on their lives.
He said it has been designed to take care of a broad
spectrum of activities at various service levels and
packaged to meet specific needs such as revitalization of E
commerce, information about government policies, attracting
new industries and creating new jobs.
Mr Emmanuel Ayettey, Upper West Regional Manager of GT, said
subscribers to the new product who have no fixed telephone
lines would have them installed without any cost to them.
