Vice President of the think-tank IMANI Centre for Policy and Education, Bright Simons, has reported what he believes is the end of Tingo‘s operations in the country.
In a post on X, Mr Simons indicated that the company’s signage at what he describes as a “swanky Accra suburb” has been stripped off.
He is devastated about how things have punned out as “Tingo got the building even though some high street banks were also after it.”
Mr Simons did not provide the reason(s) behind the company’s decision to cease operations in the country.
According to Mr Simons, “the landlord now has to deal with a seriously depressed rental market.”
