    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Let me give you my experience. I was a regulator at the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK). We provided a policy in which we said that for you to invest in the telecommunication sector you had to have a Kenyan partner with 30 per cent. When I licensed Kencell at that time, now Airtel, 40 per cent was supposed to be Kenyan. Do you know what they did? They entered into backroom agreements with Merali and Group, so that they could circumvent the law. They cheated the law. They kept amending the policy in the telecommunication sector to where it is now; there is zero per cent requirement for a Kenyan to invest in the telecommunication sector."
