The customers were treated to a night of comedy, music, and dance as well as series of activities that saw some lucky customers presented with exciting gifts such as iPhone 7 plus, Samsung Galaxy S8, and others.
In a welcome address at the soiree Mr. David Woasey, Eastern and Volta Regional Manager for MTN said: “Our mission to make our customer’s lives a whole lot brighter inspires us to continue engaging with you more often in innovative ways such as this Y’ello Soiree.”
On his part, the CEO of MTN Ghana, Mr. Ebenezer Twum Asante thanked the customers for their unwavering support to MTN. “The confidence and trust you have placed in making MTN the network of choice and leader in the telecommunications industry in Ghana will never be taken for granted.”
“Our customers are the central part of MTN’s operations because you drive our business and you are the reason we exist. MTN is committed to ensuring that we give our customers great value and a distinct experience” he added.
