A United Arab Emirates-based firm will take up a majority stake in Telkom Kenya from London’s Helios Investment Partners, marking the latest twist in the deal room of the loss-making telco.

Kenya’s Treasury said on Wednesday it had settled on Infrastructure Corporation of Africa LLC (ICA) as the new majority shareholder in Telkom Kenya following a competitive process that started in January 2023.
