It appears CCK has finally decided to regulate the market as relates to Safaricom's dominance. Hence the talk of national roaming service and the need to share infrastructure and m-pesa agents. And lately the green elephant has developed a knack for even bullying the regulator.

Then there are these 3 new telco operators licensed - Finserve Africa Ltd, Zioncell Kenya Ltd and Mobile Pay Ltd.

Where's Etislat or MTN or are they in buyout talks with Orange? These local unknown 3, what can they really do? At least the sound of an Equity or Nakumatt would have been more encouraging.

Finserve africa ltd is associated with equity.
