Number of 5G subscriptions in Kenya cross one-milllion mark
Growth in adoption of 5G in Kenya has been driven by both rapidly evolving technological advancements, as well as aggressive expansion initiatives spearheaded by the country’s leading telcos – Safaricom and Airtel.
The number of mobile data subscribers connected to the super-fast fifth-generation (5G) grid in Kenya grew 9.1 percent during the three months ended last December crossing a million.
Fresh data from the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA), however, shows this was a slower growth pace compared to the 25.4 percent witnessed during the preceding quarter which drove the number of users to 926,382 by the end of September 2024.
