Lagos — Globacom's flagship business product, Blackberry from Glo recorded another milestone as it was named the Best Telecoms product at the recent African Telecoms Award.

At the event held at the Expo Hall of Eko Hotel, Blackberry from Glo beat other products to clinch the coveted award.

A release from the company, noted thus:

"Indeed, the introduction of Blackberry from Glo exactly one year ago radically altered the way business is done in the country as top executives for the first time had a device that enabled them to literally take along their office with them anywhere within Nigeria and to several countries abroad."

Consequently, Blackberry from Glo has remained a part of the company's focus to empower Nigerians by bringing tools and products that would help them attain their goals and also rule their world.

It has been well received by key corporate organizations including banks, insurance, oil and gas companies, hospitality and several government agencies and institutions.

The result has been the creation of the largest enterprise client base which continues to grow daily due to the wide GPRS coverage on the Glo network. The Glo GPRS coverage is unequalled in the telecoms industry in Nigeria and it has largely helped subscribers of Blackberry from Glo in accessing their mails in virtually any part of the country.

In his reaction to the award, Globacom's Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mohammed Jameel, who also won the Telecoms Personality of the Year Award promised, that Globacom would continue to lead in the provision of leading edge technology in terms of products and services that add value to the lives and businesses of its subscribers.
