Tigo’s Mount Kilimanjaro tree planting campaign lures top CEOs
SOME of the country’s top chief executive officers and managing directors are rallying behind their peer, Simon Karikari, the CEO of Tigo Tanzania in donating trees to support the telecommunications company’s campaign targeting to plant 28,000 trees around Africa’s rooftop.

“I am honoured to donate 100 trees in addition to the 10,000 trees already donated by Tigo Tanzania,” said Karikari after joining forces with his company to back the campaign which has since lured top CEO and MDs in the country.
