As women were liberated into politics and business,now,in rural areas, women are starting small phone booths where local people can access to the internet. Gone are the days when businesses cheated women of prices because of ignorance.Now women who are the bread winners of the country can access the prices of goods and services before leaving their homes. phones have transformed Uganda and the more people coonected,the more it is to accelerate dvelopment. Africa is becoming a big market for technology
