“(Business in Cameroon) - As we talked with mobile operators, we came to understand that disruptions in communication is linked to ongoing construction works that sometimes affect the optical fiber, from which operators are interconnected,” Philémon Zo’o Zame, the Managing Director of the telecom regulatory agency (ART), said to explain the recent disturbances in certain mobile telephony services namely phone calls, internet services, and mobile Money.
The problem is so recurrent that the MD strongly recommends that relevant structures in charge of managing the facility reinforce their maintenance staff, and plan, in the long term, the deployment of optical fiber in the air as to “protect it from human action”, Cameroon Tribune reported.
