Netflix’s move is a response to the growing competition in the streaming market in Africa. The company faces stiff competition from regional players like Showmax, StarTimes, and iROKOtv, which have been aggressively expanding their services in the region. Netflix hopes that the price cuts will help it gain an edge over its competitors and attract more subscribers.

However, it’s worth noting that even with the price cuts, Netflix’s subscription plans are still relatively more expensive compared to some of its competitors. For instance, Showmax charges Ksh 380 for its mobile plan, Ksh 760 for its standard plan, and Ksh 1,050 for its premium plan. StarTimes also has subscription plans that are much cheaper than Netflix’s.
