STATE-OWNED mobile operator, NetOne Zimbabwe, has launched a nationwide roadshow to promote digitalisation and inclusivity as it seeks to promote digital inclusion.
The ambitious campaign, #MunhuWeseKuNetOne, aims to extend digital inclusion to communities that have largely been overlooked due to poor infrastructure development in the rural areas.
The roadshows have so far covered the Manicaland, Mashonaland Central, Midlands and Harare Metropolitan provinces.
Future stops will include Karoi, Chinhoyi, Chegutu, Kadoma, Kwekwe, Masvingo, Chivi, Chiredzi, Gokwe and Beitbridge.
NetOne commercial officer Lovemore Musunda told the company seeks to promote digital inclusion by providing access to digital technologies which will help bridge the gap for marginalised communities.
“Our roadshow campaign is not just about selling our brand, but about empowering communities through digital inclusion,” Masunda said.
