AfricaOnline, subsidiary of Gondwana International Networks (GIN), announces the launch of its broadband internet service in Ghana.
Baptised JOLA, the new offer relies on the connectivity provided by Avanti’s HYLAS 4 satellite. “We are proud to be the first to launch the Avanti HYLAS4 service in Ghana. Our rigorous testing over the past few months has given us the confidence that our customers will be very satisfied with the quality of service and speeds of up to 35Mbps download,” Foster Plender, managing director of AfricaOnline Ghana declared on April 9, 2019, during the launch of this service.
This service is the result of a business contract signed in August 2018 by iWayAfrica, sister company of AfricaOnline, and Avanti Communications Group.
