The cheque was received by the Minister of Local Government (MINALOC), Francis Kaboneka at the Ministry’s offices in Kacyiru.
“This gesture is part of the company’s long tradition of giving back to society because we at MTN Rwanda, realize and understand the importance of continued support towards the communities where we operate in a sustainable way,” said MTN’s Chief Executive Officer, Gunter Engling at the handover ceremony.
