Chivi MP Exevia Mawoneke says high mobile data costs are choking Zimbabwe’s digital growth, calling for policy and regulatory reforms to make internet access more affordable. Moving a motion in Parliament, Mawoneke said Zimbabwe now has more than 13 million active internet subscriptions, but limited competition among service providers continues to keep data prices high, constraining innovation and digital participation.
