The number of Kenyans using satellite internet more than doubled in the three months to December last year, following the entry of Elon Musk’s satellite internet company Starlink into Kenya in July.

Fresh data from the Communications Authority of Kenya shows that satellite internet users rose from 1,354 in the three months to September last year, to 2,933 in the quarter ended December.
