It's now clear that Orange will be exiting the East African market by end of the year. 

In an apparent related development the CS has given Orange notice that the Government intends to cancel the NOFBI contract. This is as it should be. The Government is making the right move yanking this out of a partner who unfortunately through either ineptitude or inability to read the market or both has turned one of Kenya's Crown Jewels into so much confetti..

I'm curious though what next for NOFBI? Will it be collapsed into the new proposed PPP for infrastructure? I'm sure the industry will be following this with interest.
