NCA announces major voice and data disruption across Northern Ghana due to fibre cuts

The National Communications Authority (NCA) has reported a major disruption to voice and data services in Northern Ghana, including parts of the Oti Region. This issue stems from multiple fibre cuts that have affected three separate transmission routes delivering telecommunications capacity to the impacted regions. As a result, a wide range of network sites have experienced significant service outages and degradation across 2G, 3G, and 4G networks.

Technical teams from the involved network operators and the National Information Technology Agency (NITA) have been mobilized to the affected routes to carry out the necessary repairs. The NCA is actively overseeing the restoration process, closely working with the network operators and other relevant agencies to expedite the return of normal services. The authority has apologized to consumers in the affected areas for the inconvenience caused and has promised to provide further updates as the repair efforts progress.
