I Need Telegram To Fix Invalid Number Issue During Signup

I am experiencing an issue while trying to register my phone number on the Telegram mobile app. When I enter my Kenyan phone number, the app repeatedly shows an “invalid phone number” error, even though the number is active and properly registered with my mobile operator.

This problem first occurred about a month ago when I initially tried to sign up, and it happened again today when I attempted the process once more, with the same result. This is my first time trying to create a Telegram account with this number, and I have never been able to use it on the platform.

I have already contacted Telegram support regarding this issue, but despite reaching out, my problem has not been resolved, and my number is still being marked as invalid.

I request that my phone number be properly recognized and validated by Telegram so that I can successfully create and use my account without encountering this error.
