Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa noted that by increasing 5G coverage, the telco is enhancing Kenya’s best internet network and empowering our customers to start exploring the possibilities of 5G.
"As a digital lifestyle enabler, we are excited about a 5G future, which makes it possible to close the digital divide in underserved communities, provide access to critical services such as healthcare or spur economic growth by connecting small businesses to new opportunities," Ndegwa stated.
In October 2022, Safaricom became the first service provider in Kenya to launch 5G.
