Telkom Kenya and Airtel have the green light to revive their planned merger after the High Court quashed a letter by the anti-graft agency questioning the sale of the former’s properties during the privatisation period.

In a judgment, High Court judge Jairus Ngaa said that the purported move by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) to recover property already sold or stop those on sale was illegal.
