MTN Mobile Money Limited Uganda (MTN MoMo) is working towards furthering financial inclusion for Ugandans living and working in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

To assume this, MTN MoMo has partnered with the organizers of the 6th Uganda-UAE convention. The partnership came with a USD 25,000 sponsorship package (appx. UGX 95,000,000).

Richard Yego, the MTN MoMo Uganda Limited Managing Director handed over the cheque of USD 25,000 to the representatives of the AUU. The handover happened at the MTN Mobile Money offices in Kampala.

The Uganda-UAE Convention is an event that happens every year and this is going to be its 6th edition.

It brings together Ugandan leaders, investors and Ugandans living in Dubai to discuss and resolve pertinent issues.

However, for this year, the convention will take place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel–Deira, Dubai. This is from 29th October to 30th October 2022. It will be under the theme “Uganda, the cardinal Trade and Investment Hub within the African Continental Free Trade Area”.

Richard Yego said as he made the sponsorship announcement. He said that this partnership is a foundation for MTN’s commitment to bridging the financial inclusion gap.

“As MTN MoMo, we are proud and honored to be associated with the Uganda Consulate in Dubai and the Association of Ugandans living in the UAE. We look forward to engaging with all our stakeholders in the UAE during the 6th Uganda-United Arab Emirates (UAE) convention and beyond. This is to continue delivering and improving our service towards the thousands of customers who rely on our unique products and services under MTN Mobile Money,” Yego said.

Currently, more than 100,000 Ugandan citizens work and live in UAE. The Ugandans in UAE were urged to follow the proceedings of the convention on MTN’s socials.

These will also teach them how best they can fully leverage MTN Uganda and MTN MoMo Uganda Limited’s bouquet of services to their advantage.
