The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted normal operations in the country with the government urging Kenyans to stay at home to keep safe. In light of this, many companies have adopted a work from home model while schools keep up with e-Learning.
The University’s staff and students will be on-boarded onto the e-learning programme, once they receive Telkom SIM Cards from the telco’s robust chain of touch points across the country.
Telkom also recently announced that its partnership with Loon, the Alphabet company working to bring balloon-powered Internet to Kenya, has received all regulatory and Cabinet approvals to begin flying balloons in Kenya.
