The Ghana Chamber of Telecommunications has rolled out a campaign to stop fibre cuts and their negative impact on the country's telecommunications infrastructure and customers' network experience.
Named "Save Our Fibre" campaign, it would raise awareness about fibre cuts and their impacts, publicise construction projects that lead to fibre cuts as well as update the public on the steps taken to fix the damaged fibre.
According to the Chamber, this had become necessary because in the first half of 2024 alone, there were a total of 5,133 cuts across the country, which cost the network companies GH¢ 118 million to repair.
A release issued by the Chief Executive Officer of the Chamber, Dr Ken Ashigbey, on Tuesday in Accra to announce the campaign said the funds spent on the repairs could have been used to expand and enhance services.
