21.06.2011
Ghanaian mobile-phone assembling company rLG Communications has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Osun State government in western Nigeria, marking the company's first step into the region's largest market.

Under this agreement, rLG will replicate its Applied ICT Module of National Youth Employment Programme (NYEP), which was implemented in Ghana and Gambia last year, to benefit more than 20,000 youth from the Nigerian state.

A statement from rLG says the deal is worth more than US$10 million and that it will involve the engagement of technical experts, equipment, tools and the setting up of training facilities across the state.
