Imudia recently left TCL/Alcatel where he was the Regional Director, responsible for Nigeria and Central Africa Operations. Before joining TCL/Alcatel, Imudia was Managing Director, Nokia West and Central Africa, a thriving concern which remains a world leader in Mobility, driving the transformation and growth of the converging Internet and Communications industry.

His core experience across several management functions including online commerce, among others will come in handy in steering the Konga brand to greater heights.

Imudia holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial Management from Mikkeli Institute of Technology, Finland; a Master of Engineering in Oil and Gas Technology Management from Aalborg University, Denmark and an MBA in International Business Management, Haaga-Helia Business School, Finland.


Nairametrics| Konga was recently acquired by Zinnox in a deal that surprised E-commerce enthusiasts and has since then been working on a new strategy to streamline the operations of the company and swing it back into profitability.

Reliable sources at Konga informed Nairametrics that the new owners have already acquired large warehouses in different parts of the country ahead of its revised distribution strategy for bringing products to their customers without hassles. From what we understand, the warehouses could serve as pick up location for Konga’s customers as well as where they can also shop for items at prices similar to what they could get online.

Analysts who spoke to Nairametrics believe Konga’s strategy might require that they prune down on overheads, negotiate wholesale distribution deals with manufacturers of consumer products and increase the adoption of Konga Pay, a payment platform used by customers of Konga.
