Uganda Communication Commission has Granted Latest Number Range "0760" to MTN Uganda's New Subscribers.




Telecom giants MTN Uganda has been given 0760 as the new code in addition to the existing 077 and 078 codes, the company has announced.

“MTN Uganda has been granted a new number range by Uganda Telecommunications Commission. We are now issuing new customers on the MTN Network mobile with prefix range number 0760 000000 and 0760 999999,”MTN said in a statement.

The company said the move done by Uganda Communication Commission (UCC) was made inevitable after the exhaustion of the existing 077 and 078 codes which have been in use for over 20 years of the telecom giants’ existence.

According to MTN, new and existing customers will now be able to select their preferred numbers from their customer service centres and various outlets in the new code.

MTN is still leading in terms of subscriber base in Uganda after their subscribers increased by 12.3% from 12.6 million by December,31, 2019 to 14.2 million by the end of the year 2020.

The number of active data users for the company also increased by 34.8% to 4.6 million.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...
