We have experts sprouting from every post on objectivity and investment but they can tell that to the birds who will dutifully fly high in the sky. Ours is a pathetic scenario loaded in cheap politics to cover corrupt deals.<BR/><BR/>So we buy and invest no matter the facless owners?

When will Kenyans grow up and start thinking for themselves without relying on politicians who themselves earn a fortune..Ksh 1 million per month? <BR/><BR/>Why can't we be like other countries in the world which are less tribal, eg our close brothers in Tanzania? I don't have any <BR/>problem with anyone boycotting Safaricom IPO as long as it's their own decision and not whipped up hysteria from opportunists. <BR/><BR/>What's the point of destroying something so special we all helped build? Politicians should just condemn themselves for failing to unmask the ghosts of Mobitelea. Surely, they have not exhausted all avenues available!<BR/><BR/> We don't need nanny politicians who interefere in every aspect of our lives, yet when they say we jump, many of us obey, no questions asked! <BR/><BR/>Safaricom has been turned into political football yet ODM chieftain Raila has gone underground without saying a word leaving his dogs of war to shove the muck!
