I checked on the Safaricom link and at some place they mention 4G/LTE Advance SIM card. LTE Advance is the latest in 4G and is more enhanced than LTE and Safaricom(if that is what they are installing) could well be the first to provide in this region.

Thanks for the email. I'd just like to note that "Safaricom's 4G/LTE service is the first of
its kind in the region" is not the case. Tanzania and Uganda already offer 4G/LTE.
Adam, at least that is what Safaricom are saying in this link http://www.safaricom.co.ke/personal/internet/safaricom-4g-lte
It's good to debunk the myths. Or probably they are saying their LTE/4G is better than the rest
