In the same way that Zimbabwe being landlocked is not a key factor influencing data prices, the US$43.75 per GB figure does not accurately reflect the cost reality for the average consumer....
🔸The Honourable Minister’s response made no sense at all. Data may well be imported but that doesn’t explain why the cost of data is so high. Data in other landlocked countries is much cheaper than data is here. To put the matter to bed:
•Rwanda is landlocked but has data at approximately 55 cents per GB.
•Uganda is landlocked but has data at approximately $1.11 per GB.
•Botswana is landlocked but has data at approximately $1.99 per GB.
•Zimbabwe's reported average is $43.75 per GB.
The reason for this disparity is what she was being called on to explain.
As you rightly point out, other Govt-driven causes are at play. She ought to have just been upfront about that than trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
All we ask for is competence and coherence in our public officials.
We need new leaders.

Just as Zimbabwe’s status as a landlocked country is not a major determinant of data pricing, the claim of US$43.75 per GB is equally disconnected from the reality faced by the average user...

Aewaka as much as there are sub philosophies, feminism has its core values and we can't keep adding new definitions to it because random individuals woke up today having a certain feeling about men😂😂 bitterness isn't feminism..maybe misrepresented misandry

No we are not...the only difference is that you are delusional to the extent of believing that you can be part of generational wealth conversations

One has to be extremely retarded to think that a person who knows which king farted in the year 1800 and a guy who builds rockets, particle accelerators, nuclear reators etc have the same intellect.
