West Africa has generally lagged a little behind compared to Eastern and Southern Africa, with regard to closing connectivity gaps within the local and regional space. The good news is that places such as Ghana and Nigeria have made excellent strides in fixing this, as you point out. The work being done by AfPIF (part of ISOC), AFRINIC and a bunch of country- and region-level NOG's has gone a long a way in promoting local and regional connectivity through traditional and other means, and we have seen the fruits of that labour. Mark.
