The fate of Safaricom power girl Sylvia Mulinge has been sealed, after a long struggle with Tanzanian authorities. She was denied a work permit due to her dark past and questionable integrity.
As at last week, notorious and Kenya's most corrupt company Safaricom had sent lobbyists to help secure Miss Mulinge a work permit but all to no avail.
Vodacom Tanzania has announced Mr. Hishim Hindi as Vodacom Tanzania acting managing director
A public notice published on September 7 on Mwananchi says Mr Hendi’s appointment starts effectively from September 1, this year. He will hold the position until completion of recruitment processes of the new managing director, according to the public notice.
Tanzanian authorities argue that foreigners must not head Vodacom Tanzania yet there are many qualified Tanzanians, something that has been debunked by the appointment of Hishim Hindi, who is not Tanzanian. Mr Hishim Hindi. A public notice published on September 7 on Mwananchi says Mr Hendi’s appointment starts effectively from September 1, this year. This also confirms that Sylvia Mulinge failed to secure important working documents because of her many scandals, that we have covered widely on this site.
Mulinge was accused of murdering a minor due to careless, drink driving along the southern by-pass. Mulinge bought her way out but the editor of this site, Cyprian Nyakundi lobbied till the then Director of public prosecutions Keriako Tobiko reopened the murder case. We are still following up the matter after Safaricom used its financial might to kill the case. Mulinge was also severally mentioned in the Safaricom KPMG corruption report as one of the directors that engaged in corruption and tender auctioning. The notorious Telco lost billions, as a result of the corruption.
Sylvia Mulinge's leadership and high-handedness at Safaricom led to corruption and launching of products that have actually failed. The only person that loves Sylvia Mulinge is the immigrant from Guyana, Bob Con Me More.
Most directors that leave Safaricom find it hard to work elsewhere because they are crooks and corrupt to the core. This shows there is a leadership gap within Safaricom. From Peter Arina who was recently fired by East African Cables to Sylvia Mulinge, this confirms I was not wrong when I came up with the connotation " Notorious Telco"
