[kictanet] Did I hear Telco CEOs say Everyone is Registered?

[Mark Mwangi]

@Dr. Ndemo are we now saying that this is also the citizens fault? If I can
buy a SIM card without registering, I will. The hustle of registering is a
waste of my time since it is of no benefit to me. The information is
valuable to the government and so the establishment should be at the fore
front of ensuring it is collected correctly.

That there are fake IDs being made in river road is also the authorities
problem. I Imagine they are always better informed than the regular
mwananchi what with their network of informants and NIS agents.

Discipline comes from the top.
