Glo Mobile Ghana, a subsidiary of Globacom Limited, Africa's fastest growing telecommunications company, yesterday launched its commercial operations, promising to deliver unparallel services to Ghanaians across the voice and data packages.

The company said it would address the yawning gap in telecommunications services in the country by offering world-class innovative products and services, which would improve the way the people of Ghana live and work. "We are pleased to inform you that the wait is over,” Mr George Andah, Chief Operating Officer Glo Mobile Ghana, told a large gathering of journalists and special guests of music and film stars.

“Now, we are ready to provide Ghana with the most-modern and reliable telecommunications services that you have not only been yearning for, but which you truly deserve. We remain as committed as ever to our vision to build the biggest and best telecommunication network in Africa,” Mr Andah said.

With the launch, people can start redeeming their reserved numbers and be able to make calls on the network, which is rolling out services on the Number Code 023 and can be experienced in every major town in Ghana.

Glo Mobile Ghana thus becomes the sixth mobile network operator to join the country’s competitive telecommunications industry.

Mr Andah said even though the company faced some daunting challenges, it was motivated by the physical and emotional encouragement of Ghanaians from the ordinary man on the street to the captains of industry and top government officials.

“We wish to extend our sincere appreciation to all Ghanaians for the massive support we have enjoyed since we were granted the license,” he said at a press conference.

Mr Kabral Blay-Amihere, Chairman of National Media Commission and Adewale Sangowawa, Globacom Executive Director turned on the keys to herald the operations of the telecommunication network.
