The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) has laid 1,300 kilometres of the targeted 2,500 kilometres of fibre optic cable that will improve internet connectivity in rural areas of the country.
The Sh5 billion project, funded by the Universal Service Fund (USF), is being undertaken by CA in partnership with the ICT Authority (ICTA) and Kenya Power, and will facilitate last-mile connectivity to at least 3,800 public offices and institutions in 19 of Kenya’s 47 counties.
