For his part, Eng. Jaafar Salih, Acting CEO for Chinguite l, stated: “The launch of the 5G network today represents far more than a transition to a faster generation of connectivity. It embodies Sudatel Telecom Group’s steadfast strategic vision and renewed commitment to our cherished nation of Mauritania, contributing to its journey toward building an advanced digital economy with greater capacity for innovation, competitiveness, and opportunity creation.”
