The question of the whole country suffering on the network coverage is true, although we pride in having 121 per cent mobile coverage in the country and approximately 62 per cent of coverage on fiber, which we would want to take to 90 per cent in the coming financial year. On the issue of AI, you realize we launched our AI strategy, which was between our Ministry in collaboration with the European Union (EU). We are now working on a policy, which we hope to have in place before the end of this financial year. We are now integrating AI into the curriculum and working closely with the Ministry of Education to be able to bring AI into this space of ICT. As you know, this is a field that is really changing. To join that with the question from Sen. Onyonka, ChatGPT is in very wide use right now in the world, and Kenya has not been left behind. We urge Kenyans to be able to participate in this space. The question was whether we are going to encourage Kenyans to come up with a way of making AI learning possible in the country. That is what we are doing. We also intend to bring into law on good use of this space because it can be used for good and bad. That is work in progress."
