Fort Hare students still without connectivity
Telecommunications companies MTN SA and Vodacom have reflected on their investments in the Eastern Cape over the 2023/2024 financial year, an accumulated R800m, though an internal study by the University of Fort Hare on its students has revealed that 64.5% are still without proper connectivity. In a media statement, Vodacom said it would invest more than R500m into the province towards new base stations, improving network capacity, LTE upgrades, backup power stability and a 5G rollout.
