It's time to sell Safaricom, KCB and other gov assets...and use it to reduce debts...no amount of data cooking will improve our gdp to debt figures.

Safaricom wont be sold never ever if Uhuru is still in power.
Its one of his cashcow with NCBA being the major partner in Mpesa,Mshwari and Fuliza.

Safaricom single hamdedly made NCBA the second biggest bank In Kenya.

The only way to have the Govt let it go is if its sold to him. Also considering he is an owner In Safcom.

Yes that is crony capatilism 101. Next gov job should be to speed up privitisation; use the proceeds to clean up our debt
