Telecel Group and Huawei Technologies have signed an MoU to collaborate on a landmark network modernisation and digital infrastructure project, reinforcing their shared commitment to accelerating Ghana’s telecom innovation and connectivity.

The MOU establishes a framework for cooperation on the Telecel Ghana Rollout Project, a multi-phase initiative valued at approximately $70 million.

The project aims to enhance network performance and deliver next-generation digital services to consumers and enterprises across Ghana.

Implementation of the expansion project commenced in November 2025, marking the official start of an ambitious rollout that will see phased network upgrades across key regions of the country.

“For Telecel Group, this MOU represents a significant step forward in our long-standing collaboration with Huawei, the Group’s strategic partner across its different markets.

"It aligns with the Group’s mission to advance digital infrastructure and innovative services in Ghana, aligning with broader efforts to expand connectivity and drive sustainable growth,” said Malek Atrissi, Telecel Group COO.

“This partnership marks an important milestone in our mission to deliver world-class digital experiences to our customers,” said Patricia Obo-Nai, Telecel Ghana CEO.

“Huawei’s proven expertise and technology leadership will help us enhance capacity, reliability, and innovation within Ghana’s telecom landscape.”

Huawei added, “We are proud to strengthen our long-term partnership with Telecel and to contribute to Ghana’s digital transformation. This MOU reflects our shared vision of building an intelligent, inclusive, and connected future.”

The signed MOU underscores both organisations’ strategic intent to advance connectivity and sustainable growth across Africa’s telecom ecosystem.
