Starlink is able to provide the service through its satellite network.

When Mr Musk spoke about the service last year, it was reported that Starlink customers had to connect using small satellite receivers priced at $500 (£360).

If those prices are replicated in Nigeria and Mozambique, it will be out of reach for most people.
