This is interesting. 

Airtel Kenya has written to Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) and Competitions Authority of Kenya (CAK) asking that Safaricom be declared a dominant player in the market. Airtel Kenya, which is targeting a bigger share of the country’s voice, SMS, data and mobile-money transfer business, claims Safaricom has been using its dominance to prevent others from growing their business.

I'm curious as to what remedies there are in the act to reverse safaricom's dominance.
