(Business in Cameroon) - The Cameroonian subsidiary of the South African telecom group MTN International has put in place 282 3G sites in Cameroonian in late June 2015. This was revealed in a report a few days ago by the parent company in Johannesburg.

By signing the renewal of its 3G and 4G telecom licences in March 2015, MTN Cameroon announced the installation of 3G on 700 sites located in 16 Cameroonian cities for the first year of activity.

This technology is then to be gradually extended across the country to cover 75% of the population by 2018, according to the Cameroonian telecom market leader’s forecasts.
