Safaricom reported a record high data traffic last Sunday, at the height of the finals matches of two major continental tournaments in both Europe and America- as many Kenyans opted to livestream the ties on the mobile phones and tablets.

Disclosures from the telco indicate that the data traffic streaming through its network as Spain faced England in Berlin hit 3.96 petabytes (3,961 terabytes) which was the highest since the firm was established two and a half decades ago.
