Hurray! globacom is 4


Just yesterday in the papers I was flipping through, I saw spashes of ads on almost every page giving felicitation to the globacom boss, Chief Mike Adenuga. It was time to share a sense of fulfilment in his dream as many people thought it a thing of joy to see a multi-billion dollar vision take root so fast.

For me, I would say that the sun has just begun its shining for globacom. Newer opportunities are opening up for this Telecoms giant, not only in Nigeria as the 2nd national carrier of telecoms license, but in the entire African continent. Within those four years, I believe "Mike" can look back and say, "despite all the denials here and there, and all the hot competitions for expanding markets to ensure a wide coverage in the Nigerian terrain, as a starter we have excelled wonderfully!"

In deed, globacom had challenges and needed to face the changing times, with ECONET and MTN already hundreds of thousands of subscribers ahead. But, despite this suicidal challenge, they marched on to triumph, and just yesterday 29th of August, 2007, the bell rang four years of committment and hardwork that made them come to a conclusion that their service has come to stay.

It's too early though, if we are quick to judge. But, what I admire is the uniqueness of globacom in its singular pursuit of a stronger license that puts them as the futuristic onlooker for growth and development of telecommunications in Nigeria.

Kudos to you, Mike. A job well done!!!

Let's celebrate. Globacom has come a long way!!!
