Ms. Cuba added that “as the premier telecom company operating a fixed network in Ghana, it has been our determination and commitment to always bring customers the best of experience.
“…across the world, the transition to fibre for the home has become commonplace and we see this deployment as a demonstration of Vodafone SuperNet in action.”

He explained that the Fibre to the Home (FTTH) product was one of the most advanced forms of technology for building the next generation of communication networks around the world.
“I want to commend Vodafone Ghana for playing its part in making sure we achieve our purpose by providing reliable and affordable internet to consumers—for their homes, offices and on-the-go,” he said.
He added that “It offers far greater reliability, lower operating costs, lower energy use to run the network and – perhaps most important of all – much greater bandwidth,” he said.
Mr. Sakyi-Addo further said the use of fibre broadband will also avoid the issue of cable theft which usually cause interactions in communication.
