I can try helping with that: in underserved regions it's not unusual for network services for that population to be physically hosted out of the region. For instance, if you have a hosting service that only accepts South African rands and your language options are Afrikaans and Zulu, you can credibly argue to AfriNIC that you are targeting its service region and are eligible for AfriNIC number resources.
But you would need to be upfront with that, including mentioning that your upstreams are not from Africa and your installations won't be in Africa. Otherwise you applied for number resources under false pretenses, and will bear the risk of such.
I believe CI had a small footprint in South Africa in some rack. Certainly nothing that would bother a /29. Mark.
