<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif">Listers<br><br>If you are like me you must by now be going out of your mind with useless SMS messages from the different players in the Telco sector.<br>

<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif"><b>'Watch Pastor Tim's Sunday Sermon...' </b><br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif">is particularly useless for a Muslim. If I were a Conspiracy Theorist (Luckily I am not. :-)) I may start making assumptions that Safaricom wants to convert me to a Christian. <br>
