Ali Monzer, the recently appointed CEO of MTN Rwanda, has laid out his vision for the telco as he begins his tenure, which is based on three main pillars: accessibility, innovation, and sustainability.
He underlined the significance of ensuring that all Rwandans, regardless of location or economic status, have access to digital tools and mobile financial services that can help them in their everyday life.
This involves expediting the distribution of low-cost smartphones, boosting mobile banking options, and decreasing barriers to digital participation, said the telco.
The company went on to explain that by continuing collaboration with Chantal Kagame, CEO of Mobile Money Rwanda Ltd, Monzer would aim to strengthen the company's financial inclusion mission by providing secure, innovative services to both individuals and companies.
Furthermore, Monzer's strategy for MTN Rwanda is built around connectivity, sustainability, and customer experience, according to the business.
“He is focused on expanding 4G+ coverage nationwide, enabling fast, reliable access to digital services and preparing the ground for future innovations like 5G. This investment is aimed at unlocking opportunities in different sectors such as education, healthcare, and entrepreneurship for all Rwandans.”
In addition to expanding digital access, the telco added: “Monzer is deeply committed to responsible and inclusive growth. Under his leadership, MTN Rwanda is committed to advancing green energy initiatives ranging from the adoption of energy-efficient technologies and hybrid or fully electric vehicles to impactful reforestation projects all aimed at reducing the company’s carbon footprint.”
