Airtel Africa, a provider of telecommunications and mobile money services with presence in 14 countries across Africa, has reaffirmed its commitment to drive the digitalisation of the continent to unlock new opportunities and promote inclusive, sustainable growth.
Speaking when he met the President of the Republic of Malawi, Dr. Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera, the Group CEO of Airtel Africa, Dr Segun Ogunsanya, indicated the firm’s plans to boost investments that are geared towards supporting the country’s target of achieving at least 20 per cent Internet access by 2030 in the quest of the government of Malawi to become a self-reliant, industrialised middle-income economy.
Ogunsanya said: “Our purpose is to transform lives across the continent. We look forward to working with governments and other actors to bridge the digital and financial gap. Digitalisation has huge potential to create economic opportunities in the continent”.
