The launch, spearheaded by Communications Minister Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, is expected to enhance internet speeds and service reliability significantly, benefiting industries like health, education, agriculture, and business.
The introduction of 5G technology offers Ghanaians faster data transmission, reduced latency, and improved capacity, marking a leap in the nation’s digital infrastructure. The 5G network is expected to empower businesses with increased operational efficiency, allowing for more seamless digital experiences, particularly in e-commerce and online service delivery.
