Guinea takes full control of Areeba Guinee after seizing MTN stake
Guinea’s government now fully owns mobile operator Areeba Guinee after seizing MTN Group’s stake by presidential decree. President Mamadi Doumbouya signed the order that transferred MTN’s shares to the state, taking public control of one of the country’s key mobile network operators.
The move ends MTN’s ownership role in Areeba Guinee and folds the operator into direct state hands, tightening government control over a strategic part of Guinea’s telecoms infrastructure.
