Cameroon Telecommunications (Camtel) is set to expand its 2G, 3G and 4G coverage across the country especially to areas which are not already covered by the network.

This was made possible after the company signed a strategic National Network Roaming Agreement with MTN Cameroon.
The agreement was paraphrased Wednesday April 13, 2022 at the Head Office of MTN Group in Johannesburg – South Africa by Camtel’s General Manager, Judith Yah Sunday Epse Achidi, and MTN Cameroons’ CEO, Stephen Blewett.
“We want to provide an environment where technology facilitates people’s daily lives, bringing them value wherever they are,” Judith Yah Sunday said.
Through the agreement, Camtel’s subscribers will benefit from access to MTN’s existing network infrastructure, which covers 97% of population with 2G, 90% with 3G and 70% with 4G.
This will allow Camtel to expand it’s geographic coverage for a significantly improved customer experience.
“This agreement is a milestone for MTN Cameroon and is in line with our belief that everyone deserves the benefits of a connected life,” said Stephen Blewett, MTN Cameroon’s CEO.
Worth noting is the fact that roaming lets you talk, text and go online when you’re outside of your wireless provider’s coverage area. With roaming, your data can travel on the network of another provider to give you the wireless connectivity you want.
