Market share. Dangote 60%. BUA 20%. Lafrafe 19.5%. The rest 0.5%. Outcome some world most expensive cement prices. Dangote & BUA just meet and fix the price. Kenya most are 15% market share - with Bamburi having 30% (maybe 20% now). Dangote would never dare come to Kenya. This was 2018 - I think three new players have join the market. Kenya gov owned Portland Cement is at 15%. Bamburi is majority owned (60%) by LafargeHolcim 68816419: 1 Like 1 Share

Inflation is falling. You can check the prices at https://www.carrefour.ke and you may notice kenyans are not complaining. Ghanians are one being gutted and you can hear their wails. Sugar/Maize had gone to 125kshs/Kilo - now they are down to 90 per kilo. Normally they should retail for 50-60 kshs per kilo. Cooking gas/oil - also down by huge margin. Only problem is petrol & diesel - but it's not increasing - just reducing by 2 kshs. So I expect a massive cut in inflation in nov and dec - might go one or two percent down. https://www.carrefour.ke/ obaaderemi: |

Safaricom is owned 35-40% by Vodacom - which is owned 60 percent by Vodafone. Vodafone therefore own about 20% of Safaricom.15% by South Africans. kenya gov owns 35% Kenya public - investors - own 25% that Kenya gov sold via IPO through NSE. Kenya gov being custodian of public investor has huge say in Safaricom. Right now both Chairman and CEO are kenyans appointed by Kenya Gov. In short Safaricom is a largely a public company with kenya gov controlling things and protecting public interests. It's not owned by Dangote. obaaderemi: |

It doesnt but it's largely a public company - benefiting the public. That only area where monopolies are allowed. If public didnt have a huge stake in it - it would have been forced to reduce the market share. Does Nigeria have something like Competition Authority to check on Dangotes https://cak.go.ke/ Look in Kenya - for example - when study was done - and it was determined that oil companies had formed an oligopoly ( a cartel like Dangote & BUA) - the petrol prices are regulated by gov. obaaderemi: |
Re: Kenyans Are Far Behind Nigerians In Every Aspect – Fani-Kayode by rvp20182: 10:57pm On Nov 14, 2022 |
You basically need to do something similar to what we do with petrol/diesel prices. Every month - a study is done to determine all the cost. And maximum price for all kenya region factoring transport is issued. So oil companies dont jack prices willy nilly or collude to rig the market. Every 15th day they publish maximum prices to avoid Dangote capture. https://www.epra.go.ke/maximum-retail-petroleum-prices-in-kenya-for-the-period-15th-november-to-14th-december-2022/

Re: Kenyans Are Far Behind Nigerians In Every Aspect – Fani-Kayode by rvp20182: 11:12pm On Nov 14, 2022 |
Thanks. I didnt know they had reign on them. That is why cement prices have remain inflation proof until recently. Dangote just makes a call to Bua and they agree to charge equivalent of 1,200ksh - and that was last year - before you add transport. That is twice kenya plus. gallivant: |

rvp20182:The largest shareholder of Safaricom is the British company, Vodafone with it's 40% indirect ownership. Safaricom is not really a public company. So in essence it's still a monopoly and it affects other players in the field and by extension Kenyans. There was a time Nigeria used to import cement and clinkers like Kenya does. A Nigerian company stepped in and today local production meets our entire demand. It's still expensive because of factors such as power supply but this will change with time. The baffling thing is why cement costs in Kenya is a tad more expensive than in Nigeria. Recall that as at March cement prices in Kenya was a maddening $9. If we convert that to Nigeria using the black market rate you are find of quoting, that's about N7000! Now it's back to ksh 650, that's about $5.2. That's still more than in Nigeria. |

rvp20182:Safaricom's largest shareholder is Vodafone. Period. The CEO and chairman of Safaricom can only be appointed by the board not by government. That's why the chairman was a South African. Pls bring contrary facts if you have them. It's too early for lies and misinformation. A bag of cement in Zambia is about $8. That's robbery, just like Kenya. It is more expensive than in Nigeria. Just like Kenya too where cement is more expensive than in Nigeria. 2 Likes |

rvp20182:nah , you goofed boy, ours comes as result of global phenomenon like covid 19 ( same things that causes your debt unstablity and the internal government police like the financial clean up exercise . So you knew nothing. Your government was not doing enough In 2016 when he forcefully acquired three debt ridden banks , your bigger problem has been prosponed , Ghana is handling his own nah , that is just the difference . Despite your stubbornness to fact that can be obtained from open source , you still fumbled. Chinese citizens will eat you alive for saying their price index hasn't changed of resent. If it is way lower than many developed nations like them , it doesn't changed the fact they are not under inflation , maybe well managed but the fact is they did not excaped it . When the whole world was at his knees during covid 19, Ghana cedis was performing best to the dollar , Ghana was giving free water to her citizens , lowering electricity cost for her citizens and so many social responsibility , if kenya try that , your country will bleed out . She is not in a financial position to rely on tea economy to drive such bill. nah , almost your entire population workforce are into agriculture , so what types of diversification are you talking about ? That is even bigger than Ghana entire population. So you aren't doing better than Togo bro. If you are borrowing at such alarming rate in which constitution was even thrown to the gutter to allowed for more debt profile. Borrowing beyond what you can pay. And china care less. they suddenly add another 11 million dollar to your debt for your failure to refuse paying up what you borrowed. But if push comes to shove, what are you leaning on in kenya ,, Tea and flower , you must be mad . We have billions if not trillions of dollars sitting in form of common dirt sands ( gold in our soil ) borrowing hasn't become a problem , the world is aware, it is it the ability to pay back on time .
