Fiber optic jump to West Africa
A major fiber optic expansion is set to transform digital connectivity across West Africa, bridging coastal and landlocked nations. Yet the continent faces a paradox: while it now has ample international bandwidth, its domestic and urban networks remain underdeveloped. With a focus on bridging the digital divide, this ambitious endeavour will extend broadband coverage to communities in the. Large parts of west and central Africa, as well as some countries in the south of the continent, were left without internet services on 14 March because of failures on four of the fibre optic cables that run below the world's oceans. Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire, Liberia, Ghana, Burkina Faso and South. The core part of the 2Africa subsea cable system has been completed, which will connect communities, drive economic growth, and enable transformative digital experiences across Africa and beyond. Pan-African tech firm CSquared announced its cross-border terrestrial backbone now stretches from Abidjan to Monrovia, integrating with existing routes between Accra.
