MTN Ghana has announced one of the most significant broadband price reductions in the country’s telecoms history after sustained public complaints over internet costs prompted government intervention, signaling a growing shift toward consumer-driven pricing in Africa’s digital economy.
The telecom operator slashed prices across its Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) broadband packages, with its flagship unlimited 100Mbps monthly plan dropping from GH¢987 to GH¢299.
