No data charges will apply to these educational websites as students and lecturers will be able to utilise them to continue with learning and teaching from home.

According to the statement released; “the gesture is part of the initiatives that MTN Uganda has put in place during the lockdown to make the lives of her communities a bit easier.”

Makerere University Vice Chancellor Prof Barnabas Nawangwe has since lauded telecommunications giant for the incentive.

“Our negotiations with MTN Uganda yielded a lot of fruit as the telecom company has accepted to zero rate six of our online learning platforms. We applaud them for this. I now urge our students and lectures to take advantage of this opportunity,” he said.
