Mobile phone subscribers in Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda will from January 1 2015 enjoy cheaper cross- border calling rates following the removal of tariffs by the three countries.
This means that mobile phone users on roaming will be charged less, while calling friends and family across the three East African countries.
The decision was reached at the just concluded 8th Summit for the Northern Infrastructure Project held in Nairobi on Friday, which was attended by Presidents Uhuru Kenyatta, Yoweri Museveni and Paul Kagame. The presidents directed Ministers of Finance and ICT of the three countries to ensure the One Area Network is operational by January.
One area network is a regional framework comprising countries that have agreed to waive or manage roaming charges and other surcharges for telecommunications traffic.
