In short you havent answered the question on whether you have the critical mass from Kenya or East Africa for that matter.... Just want clarification. So!

<div>I used to hypothesis that the reason we don&#39;t have a vibrant e-commerce infrastructure in Kenya was the lack of payment solutions and lack of &quot;critical mass&quot; of people online..These two problems have been solved yet we still have nothing on the ground. So my question to y&#39;all experts is what is hindering e-commerce in Kenya?</div>
