PowerCom inaugurated a new tower in Windhoek's Goreangab residential area.

The Minister of Information and Communication Technology, Dr. Peya Mushelenga, who presided over the tower's launch, emphasised its alignment with the Harambee Prosperity Plan's infrastructure development goals.

This tower's completion underscores the commitment to expanding access to information and communication technology, recognising its vital role in driving economic growth.

Dr. Mushelenga stressed that IT services and facilities are now a necessity, not a luxury, in today's society.

The Keetmanshoop Municipality has opted to outsource the operations and management of its Oxpass Tower to PowerCom, a subsidiary of Telecom Namibia Limited.

The tower infrastructure operations and management three-year outsourcing deal was sealed with the signing of a partnership agreement by the parties, which is effective next month.

In terms of the partnership, the Keetmanshoop Municipality will receive 60% of the annual net profits, while the mobile telecommunications company will retain the remaining 40%.
