Roke Telkom, one of Uganda’s leading telecommunications services provider last weekend gifted revelers who thronged the Blankets and Wine event with free WiFi for all. The free for all WiFi offers comes on the heels of other innovations and services that Roke continues to unleash in the market.
The Bugolobi based ISP company also had an experiential tent where they hosted, among others, the evening’s lead artiste Zahara, the South African High Commissioner Prof. Major General (Retired) Lekoa Solly Mollo, and the Uganda Breweries Managing Director Nyampini-Mabunda who are among the many South Africans resident in Uganda that were hosted at the Roke Telkom experiential tent.
Roke Telkom which set up shop in Uganda in 2006 is among the leading Internet Communications technology companies headed by Mr. Roger Sekaziga who is the Chief Executive Officer. By far, Roke telkom is at the forefront of the ICT services expansion in Uganda and aims to become one of the leading telecom players in the country. The ICT Company that has been here for not so long has proved to have become a leading mobile network provider with its business oriented products and services.
Explaining the reasons for offers like the free WiFi, James Byaruhanga the Roke Telkom COO said, “In developing countries like Uganda, access to telecommunications can help boost productivity, improve the delivery of basic services and encourage transparency and accountability. It has increasingly become essential that appropriate ICT infrastructure, applications and skills are in place and accessible to the population to close the development gap between Africa and the rest of the world.”
He closed it off “ We at Roke Telkom are proud to be associated with blankets and wine and believe that that our free WifFi offer will go a long way in helping revelers have a great time sharing with the world events like these.”
