<div dir="auto">@Twahir<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Good thoughts. However, it takes planning to get to this point where we can align everyone from the organization to participate. The reasoning is simple. To get everyone to answer questions in any corporate takes time. Corporate Communications is abit more complicated than we may wish it to be. And there are valid reasons for that. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">In the case of Facebook we had started conversations with them on this talk series earlier than Safaricom. So unfortunately the planning is such that they were ready ahead of Safaricom. I humbly ask you and others to be patient. Safaricom itakuja...sooner than you think. 😀<br><br><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature" dir="auto">Ali Hussein<br><br>Tel: +254 713 601113<br>Twitter: @AliHKassim<br>Skype: abu-jomo<br>LinkedIn: <a href="http://ke.linkedin.com/in/alihkassim">http://ke.linkedin.com/in/alihkassim</a><br><br><br><br> </div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Sep 10, 2020, 7:55 PM Twahir Hussein Kassim via kictanet <<a href="mailto:kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke">kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><div>GG,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">This is definitely very welcome.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">My wish and I believe that of many currently would be to have Talk to Safaricom first before Facebook.
