The Cable come to us through a ministry agreement with one of the companies that they have agreed to provide the service to the ministry for 25 years, so the ministry has the legitimacy, as you look at the ministry’s communications law, the Ministry has given them the contract, As a ministry, we are going to review it, but the contract between the ministry and Cable exists” said the minister.

“It was tried twice, both times failed, the telecommunications law of Code 50 of 2011 stipulates that networks must talk to each other.” The minister mused.
