“At Airtel, we are steadfast in our dedication to supporting digital inclusion, and we are encouraged by the market’s response to our offerings. We are confident that our ongoing network expansion will enable us to extend connectivity to more communities nationwide, ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital revolution,” Malhotra added,

Expanding 5G Footprint Across Kenya

Airtel launched its 5G network in mid-2022, starting with 372 sites in 16 counties across 180 wards nationwide. The company has since almost doubled its 5G footprint, with over 690 sites covering 39 counties across 285 wards.

Currently, Airtel’s network covers 89% of the Kenyan population, and the company plans to achieve 94% coverage by the end of 2024.

“We are on an aggressive network expansion drive, with the aim to roll out approximately close to 1000 sites before the end of the year,” stated the press release. “This roll out is the biggest ever in Airtel Kenya’s operations with the aim of improving indoor coverage in towns and connecting rural areas.”
