Regulator drops plan to split up Safaricom
by Ali Hussein 03 Jan '18

03 Jan '18

Listers Is this headline misleading or what? :-) A revised competition report by the telecommunications industry regulator has dropped the controversial proposal calling for the splitting of Safaricom into separate business units, drawing the ire of its rivals. Airtel, Kenya’s second-biggest telecommunications company after Safaricom, hit out at the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), saying failure to finalise the dominance debate and watering down of the report was hurting the smaller operators. Read on:- https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/corporate/companies/Regulator-drops-pla… I don't know about you but I personally would love to get a glimpse of this 'revised report'. I hope someone from CA is listening and remembering that we have a right to that report..At least that's what the constitution tells us.. :-) *Ali Hussein* *Principal* *Hussein & Associates* Tel: +254 713 601113 Twitter: @AliHKassim Skype: abu-jomo LinkedIn: http://ke.linkedin.com/in/alihkassim <http://ke.linkedin.com/in/alihkassim> 13th Floor , Delta Towers, Oracle Wing, Chiromo Road, Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya.
