<div dir="ltr">I am also of the idea that we kick them out. They are probably after getting 100 % ownership tat way 100 % profits can flow back o the mothership. Just have a look at how the French operate in West Africa to get a clue. Kicking Orange out will
not result in collapse of our economy whether it is by direct investment or tourist no.s.

<div>Has Kenya really gotten anything from that Telkom deal? Orange has no real plans for the Kenyan market, and worse the management teams they recommend over are either totally incompetent or really don't care about the state of Telkom Kenya.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What options do we have?</div>
<div>1. Let it go... Simply pull out. Cut our losses and ran. Indicate to Orange we will not make anymore investment if we are not in-charge of it. If this whittles down our shareholding to 0, so be it. Sometime though, I feel as if this is exactly what Orange
wants, then they can revive it nicely.</div>
<div>2. Kick them out. They simply have failed to deliver, then rebuild Telkom as a Kenyan Parastatal that leads in technology and innovation and ofcourse support it with certain preferences and especially so in Government jobs and build a local 'M-Pesa' that
is then used to make most of these government transactions that we're supposed to be onto by 1st April 2014 (Could it be an April fools joke bytway???)</div>
