[kictanet] The Death of Landlines?

[Kivuva]

Phillip Adar has put it sanctily as it is. Cable vandalism has done
TKL in. This is the point the late Minister Michuki (may he rest in
peace), used to say "shoot on sight".

In my company, I had 8 landlines, but currently, none is working, but
Orange engineers are always on sight pulling more underground copper,
but as Adar has put it, before a week is over, the cable is fished
out.

The solution that worked for me is to get CDMA headsets where my
landlines are redirected when copper service is unavailable.
