Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa has downplayed persistent speculation over his stay at the giant telco as he marks three years in the job, which is the minimum tenure the firm’s board gives to corner office holders.
Mr Ndegwa told the Business Daily in an interview that his employment terms with Safaricom are not tied to the three-year contract cycle offered to his predecessors—Michael Joseph and the late Bob Collymore — who were expatriates.
