Telkom Kenya on Thursday rolled out a new mobile number prefix, expanding its number ranges to meet an increasing demand for mobile services in the market.
The new lines will buttress the existing 0770, 0771, 0772, 0773, 0774 and 0775 in a timely bid to meet the growing demand for its network services across the country.
Telkom Kenya’s subscribers stood at 4.4 million as per the first quarter sector statistics report for the financial year 2015/2016, released by the industry regulator the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA).
Speaking when he confirmed the release of the new number range, George Mlaghui, Telkom Kenya’s Chief Corporate Communications Officer said the move is in anticipation for further subscriber growth for this financial year.
“We are optimistic of a subscriber spike owing to our continued customer-centric approach on valuable customer experience, Internet-enabled devices, mobile voice and data packages,” said Mlaghui. Data from CA showed that the mobile voice and data market in the country maintained a solid upward trend in the quarter under review.
