Tanzania’s Minister for Communications, Science and Technology, Prof Makame Mbarawa Mnyaa, says that the build-out of Phase II of the country’s National Information Communications Technology Broadband Backbone infrastructure (NICTBB) will soon start delivering citizens with fast, efficient and affordable data traffic to support a range of industries, including e-education, telemedicine, e-agriculture, e-commerce, and e-governance – even in the remotest parts of the country. According to the minister, a total of 59 districts have already been connected to the new backbone, with that figure set to rise to 80 by the end of the current build phase. At the same date the NICTBB is expected to have hooked up all of the country’s 21 regional headquarters; the figure currently stands at 15 (end-Phase I)
