Airtel Uganda has launched five new network sites in Kabale Municipality in a bid to improve its network.
The new sites are located at Kyetobokeire, Kekuubo, Nyabushabi, Rwakabara, Ahakempu – Katuna Road, Irimbo – Katuna Road, Mwanjari, and Kigongi, will enhance call clarity, boost internet speeds, and improve overall coverage.
Speaking at the commissioning event, Airtel Uganda’s Sales Director, Wongani Muthayi, said the company’s dedication to bridging the digital divide and driving economic transformation through reliable connectivity.
“Connectivity is more than just a service; it is a gateway to cross-border trade, education, business growth, healthcare, and financial inclusion. We understand that for Kabale to continue thriving, it needs a strong, reliable network. These new sites will support economic activities and digital access for our customers in the region,” said Muthayi.
The investment is expected to benefit businesses, students, farmers, and families by enabling better digital access, supporting trade, and improving livelihoods. Airtel Uganda also continues to strengthen its presence in the region with 96 Airtel Money branches, 3,400 agents, and two service centers.
Kabale Municipality Deputy Mayor Kedress Mutabazi commended Airtel for its investment in the region.
“I thank Airtel Uganda for thinking about the people of Kabale and expanding the network to support growing economic activity. Airtel has always been affordable, but the network was a challenge. I applaud them for addressing this,” she said.
