In 30days, this comes to 1,500Ksh or 15$ per month for 4.5GB of data.

I have over the years interacted with many of you, our parent Ministry and Regulator on diverse industry issues.
I have also been a member of this list and indeed the community for some time now and follow closely the industry discussions especially issues raised about Safaricom. Through this engagement I hope to shed more light on a number of issues and empower you
to discuss Safaricom with the right information, answer your questions and share our position on a number of industry issues. Therefore as we kick off this engagement I would like to thank you in advance and say I look forward to an open engagement. </span></div>
