Yeah.
African Lakes was cross-listed at the NSE in March 2000 and was branded as
the first Kenyan IPO but did not live to expectations.
The company issued 4 million shares at Kshs 94.50 each and as a result
secured a secondary listing in the NSE. See http://www.nse.co.ke/History.htm

The company then tried raising extra equity but that did not stop its demise
leaving the 'technology companies' seriously contemplating the next
direction to take in the stock market. See Issue No. 157 on balancing act.

We now have Safaricom, Telkom (K) and Wananchi having indicated to test the
waters soon.
