(By Obinna Aligwekwe) - In all the midst of conflicting theories, conspiracy and otherwise, here are a few things I have been able to gather.
These facts are verifiable:
1. America won the 4G war, and generated over $100 billion in GDP.
2. There was an intense race for 5G, a race which China has all but emerged victorious.
3. 5G is 20 times more powerful than 4G.
4. 5G has the capacity to generate 3 million jobs, and add $500 billion to GDP.
5. Most importantly, the nation that controls 5G, will control the world via information. Basically, 5G is the new nuclear button.
6. Donald Trump, on realising the US had lost, cancelled a contract with HUAWEI, Chinese tech giant, thereby stunting the progress of the technology in the West.

Something makes me feel the disinformation regarding 5G is about GLOBAL POWER.
I may be wrong.

My theory is:
The US may be buying time with which to develop their 5G and keep it at par with the Chinese.
The sad thing for them is... China is already working on 6G!!
