It's really a sad news that another company is taking over our beloved telco -Etisalat-, after not been able to pay up some certain amount of debts. The telco company will be rebranded and be called 9Mobile, and this will take effect in coming weeks.
According to source, the rebranding process won't in anyway affect your Etisalat line, which means, you will continue to use your Etisalat line after renaming the company to 9Mobile.
Etisalat had terminated a management agreement with its Nigerian arm and will carry out the rebranding in three weeks time.
Reuters reported that the Chief Executive of Etisalat International, Hatem Dowidar, said the company with a 45% in the Nigerian business, is transferring its shares to a loan trustee after the talks had failed.
