    • Awarded to Nuhu Suleman
      Vodafone Way Hero (4th Quarter, May, 2012 | Vodafone Ghana) Vodafone Ghana May 2012 I was vote as a hero by working in the Vodafone way of Speed, Simplicity and trust. I took the initiative of migrating all the windows servers from our old data center to the new data center without any major issue to business continuity. This project was award to a consultant and the contract was later abrogated and I took the initiative to continue till completion. I ended up saving the company thousands of dollars which should have been paid to the consultant.
