Congrats Jussab….yours has been an inspiring journey…have watched you and your lovely wife excelling…keep up the good work
And that’s the difference between Zamtel and others…at Zamtel you have a Technical Officer as CEO learning on the job instead of getting an experienced CEO…they wont bring new people because they have cadres on payroll.
