Vodacom chief executive officer Alan Knott-Craig said on Monday he would step down by the end of September.
”I will step down at the end of September,” Knott-Craig told Reuters. ”The appointment of the CEO is a shareholder matter and I don’t have a say in that.”
”I am not leaving the country or the sector, just the company,” said Knott-Craig.
”It’s been a brilliant 15 years and I enjoyed it tremendously,” he added, saying he had worked with some extraordinary people along the way.
”I will do my photography which I enjoy very much indeed,” he said.
