“(Business in Cameroon) - I will resign my role in Orange Cameroon in the coming days to go to new horizons and challenges. It is full of emotions that I’m preparing this transition”. This is the message tweeted by Elisabeth Medou Badang, managing director of the French telecom operator’s subsidiary in Cameroon.

She prefers to keep the secret about her next challenge and reminisce her time in Cameroon. “For the last four years and some months, the executive committee and the whole staff’s trust and devotion have been my biggest asset”, she said.  

Elisabeth Medou Badang officially took her office at Orange Cameroon on December 2, 2013. Before this promotion, she was the chief executive Officer of Orange Botswana since 2010  as well as the assistant general manager of Orange Cameroon.

A former executive of Proparco, a subsidiary of the French development agency (AFD), Elisabeth Medou joined Orange in 1999 when it was Mobilis.
