President William Ruto is optimistic that a free wireless network will create job opportunities for Kenyan youths.

He also noted that free Wi-Fi will help micro, small and medium-sized enterprises to engage in e-commerce.

This comes as the government announced its commitment to deliver 25,000 free Wi-Fi hotspots nationwide.

“There are millions of online opportunities our youth can exploit.”

He spoke on Friday during the Madaraka Day SMEs, Cooperatives, Trade and Revenue Expo at Embu University Grounds, where he launched the Embu University Free Wi-Fi.
