The government will lay an additional 100,000 kilometres of the national fibre optic cable during President William Ruto’s first five-year term in efforts to speed up internet connectivity across the country.

The President made the revelation during Thursday’s Mashujaa Day fete at Uhuru Gardens where he reiterated the government’s long-term commitment to achieve universal broadband availability.
