“I am sure many of you have heard about our 4G plus technology which is bringing faster speeds to users. So far we have rolled out more than 600 cell sites across the country and I am sure some of you are already enjoying the service.

“In addition, we launched a new product called Turbo Net. With its high- powered external antenna, this plug and play router and data SIM delivers fast internet in MTN 4G locations.

“The Turbo Net provides instant high speed internet for up to 32 concurrent users. To enjoy the service, your location must be within MTN’s 4G coverage,” he noted.
