Tariffs Affordability
"Although the
average price of 1 Mbps leased line bandwidth of Ksh 364,317 to the customers
appears to be lower than the Ksh 403,032 that ISPs pay to the IBGO’s,
data shows that for every 1 Mb/s purchased from the IBGO, the ISPs connect
about 6 customers using 1 Mb/s links. That is, there is a ratio of at least 1
to 6 between bandwidth purchased and bandwidth sold."

At these figures, rural internet cannot "make a business case"
therefore there exists a serious need to re-think rural connectivity.
