MTN missed the bus when their bid to buy kencell failed. Their entry into the kenyan market is however welcome. We need more competition

'A stone is heavy,and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath is heavier than them both.' (Proverbs 27:3).

What will their value proposition be? Price? zain has tried it and the jury is still out. Data? scon seems set to strangle the market. Partner Networks? zain has conquered(?) this one with 'One Network.' Convergence? Telkom is angling for that niche. So what will they offer?

the econet CEO has said that this is hearsay...just seen story on reuters

thought that Safaricom acquired One Com. Heard that they are about to roll out WiMaxx as a result. They are already positioning themselves.

I'm sure yu counted my line amongst the half a million subscribers they hav...but I'v hardly spent 15bob on it! The vuka promotion bagged a million subscribers for zain....but as soon as the promo ended the number of zain number on my fon book went down from 38 to 3!! Worse than befor the promo when i had 7zain numbers..... Safcom is so kenyan to the roots...gettin it out or pushed back is one real herculean task.

The race is not always to the swift..nor the battle always to the strong..nor food always to the wise..nor riches always to the intelligent..favor is not always to the skilled..or learned..but time and chance happens to all. Ecl9:5..

the posts title is too sensationalist

I can remember at least 10 other posts declaring the end of safcom by orange zain whatever

The onlyt thing to wipe safcom is MJs death God forbid since hes their cpu


Me first,U next

Ati... Vuka ended... the jamaa probably works for safcon.

safcon backtracked on jibambie. Vuka is great for me coz all networks @ 8/-

until introduction of number compatibility across network,safcon will continue to dominate. what about a localised name brand-might give some legup to the strugglers.

@cxz... I'm referrin to zain's Vuka promo...and not vuka tariff. The free calls between 10pm and 6am promo. Anyway..efforts zain has put in to win 1m customers are huge...and very expensive to them considerin financials the reported. Yu has a long way to go...no matter who buys them.
