No need for too many expletives, too much money in mobile tech, so tooo political...

--Licenses, spectrum all issued via nondescript local facilitation companies owned by bigwigs
--Head of CCK and PS Ministry of Information and Communications at loggerheads
--Kenyans at the mercy of SMS/PRS companies licensed by CCK with political affiliations
--Minister of Information and Communications unilaterally extends term of current head of CCK
--Prime Minister's office sets up some committee which gives findings without referring to anyone
--KRA anxiously looking for ways to earn more money from the industry to pay down rising interest rates

And now the president throws his hat in the ring - All is fair in love and war.

Airtel has been denied operation in many countries due to poor busines practices,they dont pay taxes coz they are loss making ventures,shindana na ndovu upasuke msamba..meanwhile mezza ameze wembe.

Don't you just 'love' corporates... He who holds the gold, calls the market... Who said money has morals... TKL and Scom win while CCK and wananchi lose. Nothing new here and will always be this way world over until mankind stops the corporate machine... Remember EABL too has floored Mututho...

One of the chief problems in Kenya is short sightedness. This will surely scare Airtel off of a war on the data front. The era of capped bandwidth continues... N K T!

Hopefully someone will have whispered into the Genereal's about the new katiba that came into being on 27th August. It limits his powers and gives him more time to catch some sleep at Statehouse.
The decision doesn't stand up to any logical scrutiny.
