[kictanet] DIGITAL MIGRATION - SEASON 2 (Now KBC directed to hand over Signet)

[Dennis Kioko]

Safaricom was "owned" by Telkom Kenya but Treasury cashed in on it's sale.

This has been GoK Modus Operandi for ages, so I'm wondering why KBC is
shocked here. Plus doesn't KBC owe money to Treasury and needs constant
bailing out?
