Try finding some IP connectivity while in Nigeria. You would be
hard-pressed, even if you are willing to pay enormous $$.

I get lots and lots and lots of spam from cybercafes located in Nigeria,
as well as apologies from both the cafes and the upstream networks.  I
realize this doesn't fit with your preconceptions, so I'll drop it here.

Be sure not to look at

or you might learn about at least ten ISPs operating in Nigeria.
