Communication has become one of the major needs in any location, where the population has an urgency of transferring information. The internet, being one the most useful mediums of transferring information, has surged in its vast useful possibilities and is considered a basic need by at least 40% of the Kenyan population. While this number includes the entire population who use the internet, whether for learning, communicating, or entertainment purposes, around 5% or 1,209,506 of the Kenyan adult population are digital workers, who rely on the internet to work and provide for themselves and their families.
Wireless connections are fast enough for the larger population, but for large companies and digital workers who require the extra bandwidth and speed due to either their larger workforce who need to be constantly fed by the internet to perform their duties or their transfer of larger files and information.
