Ghana Telecom connects Konongo residents

Hundreds of residents of Konongo-Odumasi and its surrounding areas are taking advantage of Ghana Telecom's (GT's) special Christmas package by getting their homes and business locations connected by telephone.

Over 100 people have had access to the facility, whilst hundreds were also awaiting their turn when the Chronicle visited the registration centre at Konongo last Wednesday.

The Ashanti Regional Public Relations Officer (PRO) of GT, Miss Mamle Asare, in an interview at Konongo told the paper that the exercise which began on November 1, is getting would-be subscribers connected free of charge and is aimed at encouraging them to take advantage of it.

She added that ?60,000 which is being collected upon application, is to be used to open account for subscribers.
