The information is not correct. Vodafone Essar is owned jointly by Vodafone and Essar. Essar on it's own is the owner of Essar Kenya

At Michael and the rest please have a look at <http://www.yu.co.ke/company-profile>http://www.yu.co.ke/company-profileand <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vodafone_Essar> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vodafone_Essar to me it is clear that Vodafone now owns the Indian Essar operation which is the parent company of Yu Kenya. Local shareholding information is scanty.

Yu is owned by Essar . Essar had a partnership with Vodafone in India which I don't think extended to other countries.
