WINNERS AND LOSERS OF THE CCK COUNTERFEIT PHONES CRACKDOWN

WINNERS AND LOSERS OF THE CCK COUNTERFEIT PHONES CRACKDOWN

As  CCK  2 day deadline approaches one thing is for sure, there are losers and   beneficiaries of the crackdown.

The greatest losers of the crackdown are the  Mobile phone service providers  who make millions of shillings from the subscribers and the Mobile phone owners of the counterfeit phones . The question is who is responsible for importing and selling these  counterfeit phones  to innocent Kenyans? and was the government aware of the existence of these problem and why was nothing done  to deny importation  of the counterfeit phones?.

Someone somewhere was definitely sleeping on the job.The crackdown could take a new twist after  a lobby group in Nairobi moved to court  yesterday  to stop he CCK   from switching of counterfeit phones.BUNGE la wazalendo  and residents of mathare want a court order to order three government agencies  to compensate them  for the loss of their  phones.They also want CCK,Kenya bureau of standards and Kenya revenue authority  held accountable for the entry  of the fake phones in  the country.

for now its eyes and  wide open   as this petition might just change everything in the 2day CCk dead line.
