MTN have always wanted to get into Kenya, this is their chance.

$300m is not cheap, but it will give them a youthful market, about 1m subs..


$300m is NOT cheap... yet I hear Safcom spends thrice that per month on supplies.. Yenyewe kuna premier league na 3rd division in the kenyan Telco's market

Apparently The company does not intend to sell its Kenyan operation anytime soon ,they only backed out of an advanced negotiation into a buyout of two telcos one in uganda and another in congo.

This statement cannot be true...that will mean that in a month Safaricom will spend USD 900M on expenses...while their Fully year (12 months) revenue is only a shade over $1bn usd....how now?

Briliant thought KenyanLyrics,,MTN has always yearned to establish a foothold in Kenya, EA. Some gut feeling tells me this is the moment.

MTN already took of Uunet; and thats a sizeable data market. To have to take over YU gives them space both for voice (Yu) and data (Uunet). Could this be the reason why Yu consistently affirms they are not going into 3G? Just hypothesizing ......
