It is seen that Africa is much worse than the rest of the world. If one extrapolates back in time from where Africa was in in 2008 (before the world cup and the installation of multiple subsea fibre optic cables to Sub-Saharan Africa) then one see African performance was roughly equivalent to that of Europe in 1994. Not only was Africa behind Europe by 14 years, but it was falling further behind year by year, such tha]that by 2026 it would have been almost 40 times worse than Europe. On the other hand if one assumes the trend since in African throughput since 2008 continues, then Africal Africa could catch up with Europe by by 2028,2008.
