I little bird mentioned to me today that the ICT Ministry is about to sign the ITRs that Kenya declined to back in Dec 2012.

As a member of the delegation that went to Dubai we fought hard to ensure that we didn't sign and that there was adequate representation across Government and the private sector. There were pre consultations both off and online and the CCK actively engaged with other stakeholders.

Ultimately there were divergent views and the head of delegation declined to sign the ITRs. At that time I penned a few paragraphs on why it was a good thing that Kenya didn't sign the ITRs.

I hope that little bird was just that..a rumor. If it is true then I personally appeal to Dr. Matiangi as the head of the Ministry to please update us on this issue. Further more we expect at the very least to be engaged as stakeholders in this space as to the reasons of the turnaround. 

We hope Daktari that we are not jumping the gun here but as you may well understand we are concerned..
