[kictanet] Fibre Optic

[Joseph Manthi]

Dr. Ndemo
Can you please, if possible, supply us with the following vis-a-vis the
fiber optic cable:

1. Schedule start of the build out

2. Scheduled termination points and when those points will be terminated.

4. Bandwidth that will be carried by the FO

3. Any maps, if available

Thanks,
Joe
