Airtel Uganda and Buganda Kingdom’s K2 Telecom have renewed their partnership, reaffirming their mutual commitment to delivering innovative telecommunication services to Ugandans. The collaboration, which began in 2018, enables K2 Telecom customers to access Airtel Uganda’s full suite of services, including phone, internet, and mobile money, while retaining the distinct K2 prefixes 708 and 709.
Soumendra Sahu, Managing Director of Airtel Uganda, highlighted the company’s ongoing dedication to fostering impactful partnerships that bridge digital divides and enhance inclusivity across Uganda. “This renewed partnership demonstrates our shared goal of empowering communities with reliable, affordable telecom services. By combining Airtel’s robust network with K2 Telecom’s innovative solutions, we aim to offer seamless connectivity that helps Ugandans communicate, transact, and succeed in the digital age,” said Sahu.
The collaboration has already provided customers with valuable benefits, such as access to Airtel Money’s secure mobile financial services, high-speed internet, and affordable voice and data packages. With the renewed partnership, Airtel Uganda and Buganda Kingdom aim to build on this success by offering even more tailored solutions to meet the changing needs of Ugandans.
Charles Peter Mayiga, Buganda Kingdom Prime Minister, expressed gratitude for Airtel Uganda’s ongoing support and its role in enhancing connectivity within the kingdom. “The partnership between K2 Telecom and Airtel Uganda showcases how collaboration can drive innovation and development. Together, we’ve made significant progress in connecting people and providing them with resources to improve their lives.”
Beyond this partnership, Airtel Uganda and Buganda Kingdom continue to collaborate on other initiatives, including the Kabaka Birthday Run, the Masaza Cup tournament, and the Bika football tournament.
