The CEO of Tigo, Roshi Motman, said, \u201cWe are excited to be the first in Ghana to give our customers such access to unlimited music. Music plays a major role in Ghana\u2019s rich and diverse culture as it is enjoyed at every social event and in private moments. This is a significant achievement for us as we expect more and more people to use smartphones in this part of the world\u201d, she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a digital lifestyle brand, Tigo Music will enable us to integrate seamlessly into the everyday lives of Ghanaians and promote great local music. I am also excited that we have the support of the Musicians Union of Ghana, MUSIGA,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

As part of the launch for Tigo Music, we will celebrate with our customers with several headline artistes at the Accra Sports on 31st\u00a0October 2014.<\/p>\n

The introduction of Tigo Music in Ghana follows the success of its launch in Latin America in 2012 where it has become an integral part of people\u2019s daily digital lives and synonymous with both live music events headlined by some of the world\u2019s best-known artists, as well as with close-up studio recordings.<\/p>\n

Tigo Music as a brand has grown in Colombia to become the country\u2019s leading music streaming service, with 600,000 users listening on average to more than 400 songs and 40 hours of music every month.<\/p>\n
