Niger Prime Minister Mahamane Lamine Zeine announced that Niger will be connected to the global Starlink satellite communications system.
“This is a major achievement for the government, which will allow us to cover all regions of Niger with mobile communications. <…> The Starlink satellites will allow us to have communications throughout the country, which is an important step towards modernizing our administrative bodies and supporting the national economy.”
The minister noted that the government has some doubts regarding the security of the connection, but the company is ready to provide additional clarifications.
The Starlink network will cover the entire country and provide connectivity at below-average prices.
