Tigo Ghana has been assigned a new General Manager (GM) by the Millicom Group and he is due to arrive in Ghana in about a month, Adom News sources have revealed. An official circular has already made the rounds within Tigo Ghana to that effect, Adom News can confirm. The new GM, Adil El Youssefi, who has been General Manager of Millicom Chad since January last year, would be replacing Carlos Caceres, currently studying at Harvard College in the United States. Youssefi joined the Millicom Group in December 2008 as Head of Value Added Service for Tigo Sri Lanka until November 2009, then moved to Chad as Deputy General Manager/Chief Operating Officer until January last year when he became the substantive General Manager. He is leaving Tigo Chad with some 1.9 million subscribers as at the end of the first quarter of 2012. But prior to Millicom, he had experience in the electronics industry working as Project/Product Manager for Royal Philips Electronics in France for over five years, before moving into the telecoms industry as Business and Technology Manager for British Telecom (BT) from October 2007 to November 2008. Highly-placed sources at Tigo Ghana said Carlos Caceres’ would be relocating to the United States, adding that he would return to Ghana briefly next week, but that would be just to ‘pack and leave finally’. It is still not exactly clear why Caceres is leaving Tigo Ghana. Carlos Caceres’ time at Tigo spanned over a period of six years, from December 2006 to May, 2012. He joined Tigo Paraguay in December 2006 as the Marketing Manager until January 2008; he then moved to Tigo Senegal as Marketing and Sales Director and later as Chief Marketing Officer until December 2009.
