@joram not soo fast. KE is a tough nut to crack and i bet pretty soon people will run out of options to sell a huge investment like that to.

Two major Internet players to hit the headlines on the today with

it's businesses and the underlying numbers look scarcely.

AK lost an amazing KES. 134m in FOREX loses ONLY and also saw their
revenues decreased by KES. 300m from 2billion to 1.7billion ouch. In
the intervening year AK has not made notable investment in
infrastructure or marketing so the revenue is bound to decline even
further. I also think the Safaricom assault on their corporate
business and Airtel heading that way ... shareholders have a right to
be very concerned.
Only time will tell how these companies would do but even with
impending changes at KDN would we prefer a better managed company by
foreigners or we really don't care? As far as AK is concerned ...

Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.As we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others.
