To bring this to your door steps, MTN Ghana launched the TurboNet, a super-fast 4G internet router that brings unparalleled internet speeds to businesses and individual homes.
The Turbonet without doubt is transforming the way we do business, engage with things and interact with people in our daily lives.

“I believe those of you who are shareholders have received your dividends for the period. We continue to work to ensure that our shareholders have value for their investments.
Also a few days ago we launched the 10th anniversary celebrations of what has become the household name for mobile financial transactions in Ghana- MTN Mobile Money.
In 2009, MTN became the trail blazer in the Mobile Financial Sector, by making the mobile phone a tool to be used to undertake financial transactions. 10 years down the line, our contributions to driving financial inclusion is evident. We can count 14 million subscribers, 124,000 merchants, 5000 agents in the value chain of MTN MoMo.
Our quest to see a cash lite society is still on and we believe as stakeholders of MTN, you will support our drive to ensure that all your payments and other financial transactions are done via MTN MoMo” he expressed.
