The East African Community (EAC) is taking steps to expand its One Network Area (ONA) initiative by integrating data-driven services aimed at improving regional connectivity and reducing roaming charges across partner states.

This expansion, the bloc says, reflects the region’s commitment to digital transformation and seamless communication, making it easier for citizens, businesses, and institutions to stay connected across borders.
