An 11 year stint as senior most Commercial honcho, doesn't it mean this guy oversaw Safaricom's march from 2m to 20m customers?

He got comfortable, so many sloppy decisions oflate. I don't think he held the position for the 11 years. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore

As you might have noticed from social media adverts by Safaricom (twitter and Facebook), it seems Airtel's UnlimiNet internet has significantly eaten in to Safaricom's arrogant data bundles market. Just ask yourself, why would SafCom be advertising the return of 90days data bundles so much yet they have just launched 'newer' bundles? What would a marketer be publicizing? Management overhaul was long overdue, particularly in the department that deals with mobile data. Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you.” ― Rashi

Not a credible story and if it is, safaricom has massive fraud issues and should have restated its numbers. obiero wrote:News just in.

It would be interesting to see what would happen if Airtel hired these two. Peter arina has been at safcom from the days of Michael joseph and if there is one guy who understands the secret of safcom's phenomenal growth, then its him.
Were they to join Airtel, it would be a perfect case study, to see whether staff thrive inspite of organisational culture or because of it.
Airtel, it seems to me, is like one place where you have to convince the top mgt that something can't work for it to be given a go-ahead.

Airtel unliminet is giving safaricom sleepless night. Nwdays even watchemen and askaries can watch El Classico and Man U vs Liverpool on their smart phones via streaming Wealth is built through a relatively simple equation
Wealth=Income + Investments - Lifestyle

Mr. James Mwangi where are you? Please have lunch with Arina concerning this flop called Equitel.
P.S - I will pay the bill!

Wasn't Arina fished from Kencell? Or is my memory failing me?
