find on the market at the same price
is a voice bundle offering 20 minutes.

range, MTN increases access to
affordable 3G devices for all customers,
ensuring that customers that previously
couldn’t afford the Smartphones due
to the cost of the device, now can not

can also enjoy free Data when they
activate their phone. All such initiatives
a demonstration of our continued
