Ati “Mwarabibonye ubushize dutangiza Mara Phones aho hanagaragajwe ko atari ugukora gusa telefoni zigezweho, ariko ko dushaka no gushyiraho uburyo bwakorohereza abaturage bakishyura biboroheye izo telefoni.”

Gusa ngo baje gusanga atari buri muturage wese wakoroherwa no kwishyura ikiguzi cy’izi telefoni kuko ngo hari n’utabasha kwishyura n’amafaranga 500.

Ati “Ntabwo ari abantu bose bashobora kuba babasha kwishyura ayo mafaranga ku kwezi. Icyo gihe twarebaga hagati y’ibihumbi bine n’ibihumbi umunani bitewe na telefoni ushaka kuko ubu bafite amoko abiri.”

Ubwoko bubiri bukorwa na Mara Phones burimo Mara Z na Mara X, zombi zijyamo SIM Card ebyiri. Mara Z igura 175 750 Frw naho Mara X igura 120 250 Frw.

Minisitiri Ingabire yakomeje agira ati “ Hari na cya gice cy’abanyarwanda, n’ iyo wamusaba na 500 Frw ku kwezi atazabasha kuyabona. Kandi dukeneye ko za serivisi tugeza ku baturage twifashishije ikoranabuhanga dukeneye ko nabo bibageraho.”

Muri uko gushaka uko abaturage bose bagerwaho na telefoni, ngo MTN Rwanda yazanye igitekerezo cy’uko ibigo byakwiha umukoro bikishakamo ubushobozi bikagira izo biha abaturage.

Ati “MTN Rwanda iza kuzana igitekerezo cyiza cyo kuvuga iti reka dushyireho umukoro [challenge] w’amezi atatu aho ari ibigo cyangwa umuntu ku giti cye yashobora kuba yatanga telefoni umubare runaka kugira ngo noneho tuzikusanyirize hamwe, dufatanye n’inzego z’ibanze tugende tuzitanga mu ngo zitandukanye.”
