Safaricom has officially submitted a request to the Communications Authority of Kenya, seeking approval to develop its own undersea cable.
This ambitious initiative aligns with the company’s long-term strategy to enhance digital connectivity and address the rapidly growing demand for high-speed, reliable internet services. By investing in its own undersea cable, Safaricom aims to strengthen Kenya’s internet infrastructure, improve network resilience, and reduce dependency on third-party providers.
If approved, the project would represent a significant milestone in the region’s digital transformation, reinforcing Safaricom’s position as a key player in advancing Africa’s telecommunications landscape.
