The Minister for ICT and National Guidance, Dr Chris Baryomunsi, spoke at the official launch and highlighted that 5G technology will play a relevant role in helping Uganda close the digital divide. The 5G network can support up to one million connected devices per square kilometer, compared to 4G which can only support up to 100,000 connected devices in a similar area. The managing director of Airtel Uganda, Manoj Murali, also explained that incorporating 5G technology will positively impact various sectors like education, health, manufacturing, and commercial agriculture.
