Orange Sierra Leone has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening partnerships and advancing the country’s digital agenda following a series of high-level engagements led by its newly appointed Chief Executive Officer, Madam Aïcha Touré.

Shortly after her arrival in Sierra Leone, Madam Touré embarked on courtesy visits to senior government officials, regulatory authorities, and key industry stakeholders. The engagements formed part of her introduction to the local ecosystem and provided an opportunity to discuss priority areas for collaboration in telecommunications, digital inclusion, and national development.

The meetings highlighted Orange Sierra Leone’s strategic focus on deepening cooperation with public and private sector actors. Madam Touré emphasized the importance of trust-based partnerships in expanding digital infrastructure, improving service delivery, and supporting Sierra Leone’s broader digital transformation objectives.

As part of the transition, outgoing CEO Mr. Sekou Amadou Bah also met with stakeholders to express his appreciation for the support and cooperation extended to him throughout his tenure. He acknowledged the role of government institutions, regulators, and partners in enabling Orange Sierra Leone to achieve key milestones under his leadership.

The leadership transition and accompanying engagements underscore Orange Sierra Leone’s intention to remain a key development partner in the country. With a renewed leadership mandate, the company aims to build on existing foundations while accelerating initiatives that promote connectivity, innovation, and inclusive digital growth across Sierra Leone.
