Good direction from the CS. ThIs paragraph caught my eye. Mr Ezekiel Mutua, the KFCB chief executive, on the other hand, said it had written to Netflix raising its concerns on regulation, since it has the mandate to fully regulate its cyberspace.

“We want the businesses of OTTs to actually be based here. There is a huge debate as to whether we will be billing or charging Netflix, and I think OTT should feel comfortable to invest in Kenya,” “The government is responsible for regulation, policy will come from government then it will be regulated but this will take some time. Regulators have to wait.”- Mr Mucheru
