Airtel Tanzania locked down a deal with the Universal Communication Service Access Fund to throw up 132 cell towers out of 201 total sites getting built nationwide. Communications Minister Angellah Jasmine Mbelwa Kairuki showed up in Dar es Salaam to witness the Phase 10 agreement signing, and she gave props to UCSAF plus all the telecom companies pushing the government's digital expansion plan forward.
Managing Director Charles Kamoto said the partnership proves his company wants to get internet access spread out everywhere instead of just keeping it packed in cities. The tower rollout aims to hook up underserved rural spots with better connectivity while keeping service quality decent and prices affordable for regular people.
