It's a new twist for the third mobile service provider Econet Wireless
International after the Kenya National Federation of Co-operatives limited- KNFC
threatened to take a court injunction to stop the rolling out of the mobile
services.

Interim Chairman Stanley Muchiri said the Federation had neither withdrawn two
court cases that prevented Econet Wireless International from providing the
mobile services.

The government and Econet Wireless International had last week signed a
settlement agreement and agreed to settle the contentious issues out of court.

KNFC who are allegedly the majority shareholders of Econet Wireless Consortium,
want the Communications Commission of Kenya - CCK, to issue them a license as a
partner.
