Starlink announced that access to its satellite service is now available Sierra Leone, making it the ninth country in Africa to welcome the network.
Starlink has rolled out in yet another African country, Sierra Leone , bringing the total number of countries with access to the satellite service on the continent to nine.
So far, Sierra Leone, Eswatini, Nigeria, Kenya, Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia, Rwanda and Benin have all received Starlink access. However, the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa has warned that this is illegal. It is also technically a violation of Starlink’s terms of service. Its roaming prices also competed very well with FTTH and fixed-5G for many months since launching in African countries at various periods in 2023.
