Etisalat Nigeria changes name to 9mobile...


Etisalat Nigeria is changing its brand name to 9Mobile.

 A few weeks ago, Mubadala Group, the major investor from the United Arab Emirates, pulled out of Nigeria’s fourth largest mobile operator, due to an N541 billion debt. On July 4, 2017, a new board was appointed at Etisalat Nigeria, to handle the smooth transition of the telecommunications company after a reallocation of shares.

Boye Olusanya, former deputy managing director of Celtel Nigeria (now Airtel Nigeria), was appointed as the chief executive officer of Etisalat Nigeria to oversee the transition.

 We understand that Olusanya was appointed to oversee the transition of the company due to his experience in the smooth transition of Celtel to Airtel. The transition of the Telcom, with 21 million subscribers, was brokered with the aid of the Central Bank of NIGERIA (CBN) and National Communications Commission (NCC).
