A scramble for frequencies in Kenya’s lucrative broadcasting market is looming as the sector regulator moves to repossess an estimated 150 inactive licences held by politically-connected individuals. Cancellation of the licences issued by the Kanu and Narc administrations is a key plank of reforms that the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) has announced for the broadcasting industry under a new law that comes into force on 15 August.
The move is expected to unlock investment opportunities for more than 3,000 Kenyans who have been unable to break into the lucrative market for lack of frequencies.
