When it was launched in May 2019, the Chief Executive Officer of MTN Ghana, Selorm Adadevoh disclosed that the TurboNet sets out to meet consumers demand for affordable and super high internet service.

However, most Ghanaian subscribers seem unhappy with the increase. It seems a lot of Ghanaians will be looking for alternative networks with affordable prices.
