If you are a geek and can develop mobile apps, MTN is offering you a ticket to stardom in the MTN App Developer Challenge 2013.
I have taken care to copy everything word for word from Contest's Official site link .
The only ambiguity is that no mention is made of the type of app required - java app, android app, iOS app or web app. It's up to you to find out!
Hint: Android apps are accepted, checkput the MTN Nextapps link to confirm.
