Elon Musk’s Starlink Sees Africa Expansion Slowing Amid Growing Challenges | Firstpost Africa

The rollout of billionaire Elon Musk's internet service Starlink is moving at a snail's pace in the African continent.

This has forced Starlink to halt new sign-ups in several African cities and has also cast doubts on the future of Starlink in Africa. Watch the video to learn more.
