[kictanet] KENIC deletes isuhuruinkenya.co.ke domain

[Odhiambo Washington]

Eric,

Is this explainable by the fact that whois.kenic.or.ke is now taken down so
that we cannot query the status of domains?

Taking this down is one thing that KENIC has done to shoot itself in the
foot I can tell you.

Kenic needs to style up because honestly speaking, there is really nothing
special with having a .KE domain. It's just out of fake patriotism that we
register .KE names. At the end of the day KENIC is a business that must
remember that clients come first.
