[kictanet] Kenya's Peculiar Business Environment

[Claire RUTO]

I am sorry guys; I have kept quiet as I have watched this debate go on.
But now it is bordering on sub-judice and defamation, given the
implications some are making.

I would ask that we keep this site to comments on policy and information
that would enrich us as practitioners in ICT. It takes away from our
discussions when we start to makes comments that have no basis on fact
and which we really know nothing about.

Having said that I must say that when facts have been used well, I have
benefited a lot from the information given here and even from some of
the criticism and suggestions made.

 Man i have very little trust in lawyers though in my darkest moment i 
know they might be the only rescue.  However one could have another look

at the situation in that the gains for one party were obviuosly 
understandable 2 Billion and all the other party had to do was not turn 
up.  Could there have been some agreement ??  What time did the lawyer 
set off for court ??  How long has he been doing that journey ?? was 
there something unusual that morning that the traffic was too much ???

In these days of ICT did the lawyer call ahead and inform court of his 
problem ??  If he so did why was the case still thrown out ??


I'm sorry i just think this is too obvious that if we just let it be we 
allow ourselves as Africans to be ridiculed for corruption and 
incompetence.  No lawyer is that dump or are they ???  Or do they think 
we are all too dump and stupid that we let it go.  Guys I'm sorry but i 
smell a FAT ROTTEN RAT.   I don't buy the traffic storry pull the other 
one matey.

My 2 cents
