With the numbers
For now but I see a slowdown in new accounts for Safaricom.

True that, but we know where the majority and loyal high spenders on phone are and where migrant budget spenders are

Nice insight. Funny to say watched. How are you watching them. Light note

When Airtel unleashes their 3G... I will win coz either it will be as fast but cheaper than Safaricom OR Safaricom will drop their prices!

I love competition!
