Kenya’s biggest telecommunications company – Safaricom is targeting to increase the number of its customers who have access to the superfast services available through 5G network by setting up more sites by the end of 2021.

Safaricom launched the 5G network in March – at the time it had only 15 sites – but it now wants to increase that number by over 17 times – to be 250 sites.

The rise in 5G network site will mean more towns in the country will have the superfast services that come with the fifth-generation (5G) network.

According to Business Daily, the increase in 5G network sites will also help Safaricom tap into the ever-expanding mobile internet users in the country – by availing the service to workplaces, homes, individuals as well as enterprises.

“When we started, we had about 15 sites where we have had the signal as we speak. This is expected to go up to about 100-250 sites by the end of the year,” says Safaricom Chief Finance Officer Dilip Pal.

In March 2021, Safaricom started upgrading its network in Nairobi, Kisumu, Kisii and Kakamega – a move that has seen the urban areas witness a rise in data traffic.

Expansion of the 5G network, according to Business Daily, will be on a trial basis, for Safaricom, hence it won’t for the big portion of its spending that was at Ksh34.96 billion.

Safaricom spending is projected to rise to about Ksh40 billion by the end of the 2020/2021 financial year.

With the growing internet access across Kenya, reaching even the remote areas, there is also a growing opportunity for the youth to make money online.
