@Pius ??? If you want to know the data business, ask any BPO and they will have the answers. There is no next billion out there unless the BPO sector is just about to be swallowed up by Safcom, which to me means that e-govt business is certainly tied to Safcom's ICT strategy. Lets see what the BPO sector will have to say about Safcom. And the 2 companies that Safcom is buying out is quite strange. I-Go wireless is purely wimax ( Safcom already has plenty in its One Com buyout ) and Instaconnect ( a content service provider? ) does what? Is this similar to the hulabaloo of Access Kenya buying out some dialup ISP and the news in the market was falsehoods about partnerships? Queen Bee is a buzz now.... :-) Me thots.

The business now for growth and expansion is data ……if guys you have noticed data poses great opportunities further compounded with newly acquired capacities owing to arrival of fibre…Safcom always keen to forecast market trends has picked on this hence the urge to diversify from its core business as a mobile telephony outfit to position itself for the next billion….
