ICT secretary Fred Matiang’i has vowed to tie the renewal of Safaricom’s licence to the voice quality checks that show the mobile phone operator is non-compliant.
Dr Matiang’i said the government and the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) will not negotiate on the voice quality standards.
....
“I don’t understand why an operator would like to negotiate a licence condition. There are only two options here, either comply or step out of the business,” Dr Matiang’i told the Business Daily on the sidelines of the launch of the electronic filling of returns by insurers to the Insurance Regulatory Authority.
