The challenge

What wasn't working

Subscriber care was split across vendors, with no unified view of customer history. Average handle time was 9m48s, NPS stagnant at 23, and regulator (NCC) reporting required 14 days of manual work each month.

The Africall setup

What we configured

  • Single tenant across NG, KE, GH with country-aware routing and local virtual numbers.
  • AI voice agents trained on Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, Swahili and Twi handle tier-1 queries.
  • Auto-categorised tickets feed SLA dashboards visible to regulators in real time.

"We replaced four vendors with Africall in 90 days. Our agents finally see one customer, not seven."
