This is a very informed move from Kibaki.
Now operators may continue expanding their footprint into the uncovered countryside; I think of late (which reduction in MTR in mind)the have been concentrating in towns where they are sure of returns. I could be wrong!

Oh yes! The economist in charge of the country where according to data compiled by Bloomberg, the Shilling is the third worst performing currency against the dollar this year, coming after Suriname’s dollar and Maldives’ rufiyaa.

WHAT! This is the worst decision made by Kibaki in 2011. YEYE NI MAFI YA KUKU. We need safaricom stocks to be KES1.50 by Dec. 2011 ndio tununue mingi na safely! WRONG TIMING MR. GENERAL KIGUOYA (kioga!)!!!!! Kama ulinunua hizo shares, wewe utaumia pole pole pekee yako!

By the way His Excellency did buy shares when at the IPO if I recall correctly. Nobody then pointed out the massive conflict of interest. Food for thought?

Losers: Airtel, CCK, Kenyans? (I'm sure VVS will agree)

Already Airtel whining: “A change in the implementation plan for the MTR will have a severe impact on our business going forward because we have based our entire Business Operating Plan on the successful implementation of the MTR,” said Mr Rene Meza, the Airtel managing director.

Did Airtel ever have a plan B? Where is the much heralded 3G? They need to rethink their strategy going forward from here...


That response by Airtel is aimed at setting ground for a suit against CCK - principle of legitimate expectations.



Seemingly yes.

But then how sound would their case be given that CCK stayed the course, only for forces beyond their realm to take some unsolicited action - which action would be the basis for the case.

Well, for him to have done it, we can only expect that he was properly advised about it!

In any case would Airtel be comfortable challenging a presidential decision here!

Thinking - business wisdom.

His decision to appoint a personal chief justice earlier this year was challenged!
Hata hii inaweza!
CCK had a report clearly showing that the interconnection fees were sustainable.
Maybe aliona ROI yake on Safcon iko mbaya sana hadi drastic measures had to be taken
