Why isn't Hurricane in your mix yet? They have great routes, some of the lowest pricing available, and they are always easy to reach at the NOC. They also peer at nearly every IX possible. They're #1 in number of BGP adjacencies.
It looks like they have 3 or 4 paths in/out of Africa. I'd use their looking glass tool to check latency and peering.
For Africa, Kenya and South Africa tend to be typical points for initial build-outs. Nigeria gets attention too. You want to look at an operator that spreads across more locations than that to reach as many African networks as possible. The ones that I know of have Africa as their primary market, but also have presence in Europe. Mark.
