He, however, hinted at a policy revision to make this possible. "We have made sure that the spectrum required for five 5G is available. There are few policies that must be made as to exactly how spectrum will be made available. "It is very complicated, because of the way the market is, we don't want to proceed and only one entity will have the capability of acquiring the 5G," he explained.

Vodafone teams up with Amazon’s to extend 5G reach to Europe and Africa.

Africa News, International, Science & Technology
Vodafone plans to work with Amazon’s low Earth orbit satellite constellation Project Kuiper to extend the reach of its 4G and 5G telecoms networks in Europe and Africa. The British mobile operator said Project Kuiper’s high-bandwidth, low-latency satellites would be used to connect mobile base stations in remote locations to its core networks, eliminating the need for fibre-based or fixed wireless links. Amazon is preparing to test two prototype satellites in the coming months before starting to deploy production satellites in 2024 for its network, which will compete with Elon Musk’s Starlink, OneWeb and others. Vodafone and Amazon said they would work to roll out Project Kuiper’s high-speed broadband services to under-served communities around the world, and also offer...
