Yolanda Cuba, the Chief Executive Officer of Vodafone in Ghana has dismissed claims that there is plan to have her replace ailing Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore following his extended sick leave.
In a statement on her Twitter handle, Cuba dismissed the reports widely circulated on Kenyan social media as mere fake news and wished Collymore a quick recovery.
“Fake news are not news. Bob Collymore, wishing you a speedy recovery so that you can get back to your job,” Cuba wrote on her Twitter handle.
At the same time, former Safaricom CEO and the current Kenya Airways Chairman Michael Joseph also termed the clams as ill-informed.
“I have just visited Bob Collymore and he has not resigned and is doing fine under the circumstances,” he said.
In October, the mobile service provider firm announced that Collymore had taken a leave to seek specialized treatment "for a number of months". The telco company named Chief Financial Officer Sateesh Kamath to take Collymore's role in his absence.

@Guest1. Do not mix the Bible with Kenya politics. Wacha kuwa Kanyari phase 2
Go Read the Books of Kings and Chronicles and try to Seperate the Bible and Politics. Jesus was a Politician too against the Government of His Days; if you didn't know.
Safaricom is a Kenyan company why are there no qualified Kenyans to run this company.This foreign expertise bs needs to end.Kenyans made it what it is and should be rewarded by appointing one of their own
@Anonymous. There so many qualified Kenyans who can do that job but Kenyans have mkono mrefu
Guest 1 are you stupid or High on pipe
Give me that job. Collymore has had enough let him go home and enjoy the rest of his life. Quick recovery but leave the job so I may also earn some.
If Bob Collymore is AILING, he Could be Headed the Samuel Kivuitu way (for ABEITING the Rigging out Raila in 2007). He died. So if Safaricom helped RIGGED the 8/8/17 Election, then Bob Collymore needs to Come Out and Condemn the RIGGING (for his Conscience aand Health Sake). For Raila is the ANOINTED of God: Do NOT Touch Him; do NOT Harm Him. Amen!!!
