Sh54m cable to step up Internet in Kisumu
Posted on : Friday, 12th August 2016
Liquid Telecom Kenya is laying a Sh54 million metro fibre optic network in Kisumu that is expected to boost Internet speed ten-fold.
The 12.4 km metro network will cover Kisumu Central Business District, Milimani, Kondele, Kibos, Kicomi and Migosi Junction.
The network will be built in partnership with Kisumu County government and is in line with the goal of transforming the metropolis into a “smart city”.
“Technology is opening ways to save costs, lives and losses, as well as enhancing opportunities, markets and education, and a fast and reliable Internet connection is essential as a first foundation in developing all of these opportunities,” said Liquid Telecom Kenya CEO Mr Ben Roberts, in a statement.
