@cdaseka, it is immoral to watch porn, it is not immoral to attract customers using price drops. Like you said, Airtel better make sure their network can handle the new customers otherwise their subscriber growth will be short lived. Price is a huge selling point for many products, and a very important factor for most customers. If Safaricom & Orange bleed subscribers/ revenue, they will be forced to drop prices to get them back. The real money is in data anyways, calls should be dirt cheap.
@Kariutha, this guy is chezaing kizungu for us. More customers means more profits for Airtel. That means they can invest more in their network and all that. Less cost for calls also benefits wananchi - spend cash on unga and nyama instead of calls.
@sirjonduke More subscribers will require more base stations and Mobile switching centres to support the increased network load or else you will have a congested network. For one to have this infrastructure in place, you need to spend money acquired from profits to develop the network first before luring people in. it is immoral to attract people to sign up for cheap calls only to get many subscribers who congest the network resulting in a poor overall performance,,, even though cheap.

airtel deal seems too good to be true. Kenyans must be very wary of the indians
