come on @ caveman...

and it is a sabotage...?

When you run so fast to get somewhere,you miss the fun of getting there... Life is not a race,so take it slowly....

Ask MJ,it was him who made the allegation not me. Apparently the fibre optic cable was hacked in 5 different places. This indicates the person knew what he was doing. Cut throat competition,that's all it is...

Be the change you want to see in the world...

If Safaricom is that venurable then i think we are in alot of trouble they should be able to mitigate this disasters.

@simonkabz

No such luck.

By the way,where exactly was the cable cut?

Depending on the location,one question I would have for an operator like Safcom considering their size and systemic importance is why link redundancy (if in place) did not kick in immediately. Even if the fault is with one of their service providers,a telecom operator of their size must have a plan B with minimal effect on the end user or should demand live link redundancy from their critical service providers (save for some monopolies).

But as I said,such circumstances can best be analyzed with facts of the what and where.
