The heading is wrong. Only 2 Chiefs have left; CIO & CTO, the rest have either been made directors and GMs or chosen to go a step lower and become H.O.Ds.

I can't wait to see what will happen at the middle level. Watu wataenda. There are so many managers without direct reports.

@JusBlazin, agreed wrong heading, maybe too eager for heads to go down. Good communication from the CEO though, kills all speculation.


I see some Chiefs have become Heads of Departments - what gives? Does it mean they are paid less, or they suffer lower rank at higher pay until they leave?

And why restructure and retain most? Doesn't it make more sense to just get better ones - some ambivalence perhaps.

Can't argue about the CTO/CIO exits though? CCK rated network worst in Kenya, every so often MPESA down and shops can't serve you because of some tech issue...

@Sasha.. I heard different. Currently the company is much more "layered". From Bob, Chiefs, HODs, Senior Managers, Managers, Seniors etc etc...about 8 levels.. Bobs intention is to reduce this to about six.. we're watching

@ gg. How will u get the 600 mb and yet that bundle is for that specific imei and not urs.
Btw enjoy ur weekend !!

No. No. No No. No. No . You arent gettin it.u are having the wqong assumption that the 600 mb can be transfeqed from one imei to another.and thatsnt the case. This is a bit technical.
This is how it happens. When safaricom activates the 600 mb on that specific imei next time that specific imei wants to access the internet safaricom internet servers will check in their database if that imei has enough bandwidth (bundle) .and since it has - it was earlier activated - it will be allowed to access the internet.
Imei arent interchangable or changable.
Do u know why china phones ( those counterfeit onces) dnt have imei numbers ? Coz they want to avoid beign trackd.
I hope i have made it as simple as possible.
