Africa competition watchdog has launched a probe into allegations that Airtel Kenya lied to customers about mobile money charges and failed to disclose the foreign currency exchange rates for cross-border transactions.

The Comesa (Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa) Competition Commission has issued a notice of the investigation and has asked other aggrieved travellers to come forward by February 28.
