{{MTN Rwanda today provided four BlackBerry\u00ae smart phones to the top four, best performing students of the School of Finance and Banking (SFB), academic year 2011.}} <\/p>\n
The four BlackBerry\u00ae Curve smart phones worth over Frw800,000 were handed over to t four students by MTN Rwanda\u2019s Senior Manger Marketing Operations, Robert Rwakabogo during a give-away ceremony at the school premises.<\/p>\n
The students include two best Bachelors of Business Administration students (Mugwaneza Olivier and Nyiratwagirimfura Juliene) and the best two students at Masters level (Ngige Peter and Mutesi Patience). <\/p>\n
The Vice Rector-in-charge of Academics, Papius Musafiri presided over the ceremony.<\/p>\n
According to the MTN Rwanda\u2019s Robert Rwakabogo the gesture is part of the company\u2019s commitment to promote and prepare young Rwandans into entrepreneurship, by providing relevant efficiencies and cost savings packages to outgoing students. <\/p>\n
\u201cUsing the BlackBerry devices provides benefits that are not limited to productivity and cost efficiencies. BlackBerry devices allow the user to convert downtime into productive time by giving one access to email at all times,\u201d Rwakabogo said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is probably why our BlackBerry subscription which is exclusive to MTN Rwanda is growing. By the end of June this year we had recorded slightly close to 6,000 (both pre-paid and post-paid) active subscribers on BlackBerry.”<\/p>\n
“The figure varies depending on the package, because we have users that subscriber for a week or a even day,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Rwakabogo also said that through a partnership with KCB Rwanda, MTN Rwanda is now providing the smart phones with packages that make them affordable for every one.<\/p>\n
MTN Rwanda early this year (May) entered into a joint partnership with KCB to offer a facility that can allow customers to own a BlackBerry\u00ae smart phone on loan. <\/p>\n
The partnership allows eligible account holders to purchase a BlackBerry\u00ae handset including one year subscription and pay in 12 instalments. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
