Kenya's telecoms regulator has denied the numerous reports that it is in
tension with the country's largest mobile network, Safaricom over the renewal of
its operating license.
There have been a number of reports that the CCK had threatened to block the
license renewal over the mobile network's quality of service, which was backed
up by a government minister.
However, the CCK's Director General, Francis Wangusi has dismissed such
reports and said that talks over the license renewal were proceeding amicably.
There is "no tension" between the two sides he added.
Safaircom disputed the reports into its network quality and called for
independent studies to be carried out.
The mobile network is also said to be unhappy with the size of the license
renewal fee, which has been set at US$27 million.
