MTN Uganda has appointed Sylvia Mulinge –currently the head of consumer business at Safaricom— as its new chief executive starting September 1.

The move marks Ms Mulinge’s successful jump to the CEO’s post after her appointment to lead Vodacom Tanzania in 2018 was thwarted by Tanzanian authorities who refused to issue her with a work permit.
