To understand the extent of the effect Huawei has had on information, communication and technology in Africa, it is worth considering the major investment it has made into this sector.
And despite increasing controversy over whether using Huawei telecommunications equipment poses a security risk and the shutting out of its business in some countries, and even the recent arrest in Canada of one of its most senior executives, the company has continued to grow steadily globally. The government of Taiwan has also banned Huawei products, citing concerns that the tech giant could build backdoors into its products on behalf of the Chinese government. This follows Australia’s statement that it will ban the country’s carriers from buying equipment for 5G networks from Huawei and other Chinese telecommunications companies.
These allegations have emerged amid heightened tensions between the US and China about trade, intellectual property and geopolitics.There is also an allegation that Huawei is selling equipment to Iran, which was behind the arrest of Meng Wanzhou, Huawei’s chief financial officer in Canada, and adds another complex layer to the negative sentiment being expressed in mainstream Western media.
Moreover, many have rightfully questioned the US’s unilateral actions against Huawei, especially because it is forcing Chinese companies to comply with its sanctions against Iran, which the Chinese government does not agree with.In 1998, Huawei launched its operations in sub-Saharan Africa when its established operations in Kenya and now has a footprint in more than 40 African countries. It is considered among the top three telecommunications companies on the continent.
Huawei is committed to answering consumer needs and in assisting countries to realise their national development strategies. This commitment, reflected by both it products and long-term programmes, has earned it the loyalty of both governments and consumers.
