Kenya plans to roll out the first consignment of one million locally-assembled smartphones in two months at a unit price of Sh5,484 ($40), in a bid to foster digital access and inclusion.
ICT Cabinet Secretary Eliud Owalo said the affordability of smart devices has been a major hindrance to digital inclusion, hence the need to produce the gadgets locally.
