Chief Executive Officer of MTN SA, Mteto Nyati, has added another feather in his cap after being named as the Black Business Quarterly (BBQ) Hennessy Businessman of the Year at a gala event held in Johannesburg last night.

"I am humbled and honoured to be conferred this award and for joining an illustrious group of distinguished businessmen who received this accolade in the past. This award is dedicated to members of my executive team for their judicious leadership, and to the entire MTN SA staff who have put their shoulders to the wheel to ensure that the organisation's strategic intent is turned into reality," said Nyati.
