Electricity distributor Kenya Power plans to connect millions of homes in rural locations with broadband internet via its fibre-optic network infrastructure, reports Business Daily. The company currently leases the fibre cables on its transmission lines to broadband operators including Safaricom, Wananchi and Jamii Telecommunications, but now plans to directly offer high speed internet services to customers in rural locations. Kenya Power had over 8.2 million customers at the end of June 2021.
