In a short statement on Monday, 7th December, the company announced that its “Managing
Director, Sudipto Chowdhury has been retained overseas for private and personal
reasons until further notice”.
The company said an interim Managing Director,
Dapo Olasope, had been redeployed from its Africa Regional Office to serve as
acting MD until the situation is determined.
Airtel is the largest telephone company in Sierra
Leone by virtue of its subscriber base but faces stiff competition from the
Lebanese-owned Africell.
Although the Airtel management
did not give any definitive explanation for recalling Mr. Chowdhury, last week
local media reported alleged mal-administration within the management of the
telephone company.
