Telecel Ghana’s Swift Response to The Network Challenges
Telecel Ghana’s swift response to the network challenges reflects its dedication to maintaining high standards of service reliability and efficiency. The company recognizes the importance of reliable telecommunications services in today’s digital age and remains committed to providing seamless connectivity to its customers across the country.
In a related development, the chief executive officer of the Ghana Chamber of Telecommunications, Ing. Kenneth Ashigbey, noted that telecommunications service providers are securing new network capacities to tackle the internet blackout facing the country.
Ken Ashigbey, in an interview, noted that the connectivity challenges Ghanaians faced following the cable cuts are not the same currently as “we are beginning to see an improvement in the services.”
“As we talked about a minimum of five weeks to fix those cables, the telecom service providers and then the undersea cable [service providers] would be looking to bring capacity from other sources into the country. And so once they’re able to bring adequate capacity to meet what you actually had before the [cable cuts], then you’d have provided the connectivity back to what it was and so you’d not be getting that from those four cables.”

Ken Ashigbey added that telecommunications service providers would be able to go back to the cable source when the repair works are completed, emphasising that “the most important thing is to continue sourcing from other sources as we wait for those cables to be fixed.”
