Hi All, All mobile companies in Kenya will be able to tell you how much biz they are loosing to .what's app in terms of subscribers and further more the loss of sms traffic will provide a good yardstick. Else, get the CA to ask FB for the numbers that is easy and they Will provide the numbers if they want to comply with regulatory requirements. FB - please provide the numbers it is nothing to be ashamed about.

Apologies for the delay-far too much travel. I’m not sure if we have public figures for WhatsApp by country-I’ll inquire internally and revert. Best, Ebele
