We also believe that all companies should unite to work together with the country’s leaders and corporates now more than ever, our partner, MTN Ghana, will provide free Sim cards with 500mb data every month for 6 months for the devices we are donating “said Eugene Nahm, MD Samsung Electronics West Africa, Ghana Branch.
