The Ministry of Communications says plans are far-advanced to facilitate domestic roaming for telecommunication users in the country.

This will enable Ghanaians shuffle between one company to the other with more ease than before. This is to create an opportunity for greater customer satisfaction.

Communications Minister, Dr. Omane- Boamah made this known when he opened the ‘Digital Family Forum’ organised in Accra.

The forum was organised by the National Communications Authority (NCA) as part of the 2016 World Telecommunication and Information Society Day, which falls on May 17 every year under the theme,  “ICT entrepreneurship for social impact”, while the national theme is “ Addressing challenges of the communications industry to promote growth and development — Focus on domestic roaming and Over-The-Top (OTT) services.”

Dr Boamah said “an implementation of such a transformation would stimulate, promote and encourage innovation and furthermore provide the required quality of service while developing a reliable communication infrastructure. “

Already there is mobile phone portability service which allows subscribers to switch from one network to another. The domestic roaming for telecommunication users will make it the more better.
