5G networks could change life in Kenya

Despite the ongoing issues between the United States and Chinese tech giants ZTE and Huawei, the two companies are not slowing down in their efforts across the globe. While the European Union may have joined the USA in placing restrictions on the two firms, elsewhere, they are welcomed with open arms.

Africa is a case in point, where they are helping to modernise the continent’s ageing telecom infrastructure, and Kenya is no different. It is soon expected to become the fourth African country to launch 5G networks using Huawei’s technology, following South Africa, Egypt and Uganda.
