Wish I bought Safaricom shares last time I was back home  :(

They will literally be minting money.

Yes this is huge - Ethiopia is 2nd only to Nigeria in population in SSA - and Ethiopian Telkom is in a mess.

Big problem - forex will not come out of Ethiopia - so Safaricom has to go in for a long term.
