Yagbonwura commends MTN for establishing new regional office in Damongo

The overlord of the Gonjaland, Yagbonwura Bii-kunuto Jewu Soale I, has commended MTN Ghana for establishing a new regional office in Damongo, describing it as a significant step towards employment creation and rapid development in his kingdom.

According to the King, the presence of MTN in Damongo will greatly alleviate the economic burden on his people and eliminate the need to travel to Tamale and Wa in the Northern and Upper West regions to access MTN services.

In a press release signed by his secretary, Abdul Samed Abdulai, Yagbonwura praised MTN for its swift response to his request for a regional office.

“Indeed, you are a true, loyal, and trusted partner in development. In less than a year since my request, you have fulfilled it. I have no doubt that this will create employment opportunities for the youth and reduce the cost of traveling to other regions for your services,” the King stated.

Yagbonwura assured MTN Ghana of a peaceful and supportive environment for its operations in the region.

He also urged the telecom giant to prioritise local recruitment, emphasising the availability of skilled human resources within the Savannah Region.

“As partners, we have capable human resources here in Savannah, so do not look beyond the region when recruiting workers for your new office,” he appealed.

In a related development, a three-member delegation from MTN Ghana visited Damongo to inspect the site of the new regional office. The delegation included Adwoa Baah, Senior Manager for Retailing in Northern Ghana, and Kwami Aseye Akude, Manager for Retail Experience.
