If you're reading this somewhere in Africa, then perhaps you should thank Nii Quaynor.
The Ghanaian professor is known as "Africa's father of the internet," a web pioneer who helped establish some of the continent's first online connections.
For some 20 years now, soft-spoken Quaynor has been at the forefront of web development across Africa. He is the first African to be elected to the board of ICANN, the internet corporation for assigned names and numbers. He's also played an important part in launching the African Network Operators Group and AfriNIC, the African internet numbers registry.
As a result, Prof. Quaynor was recently inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame, lauded as an instrumental figure "in the early design and development of the internet." He is today chairman of Ghana's information technology agency and a professor at the Cape Coast University.
Prof Nii Quaynor help set up the in across AFRICA including countries like NIGERIA, GAMBIA, RWANDA and so many more.

I have been wondering why internet is so costly in this part of the world. This interview provides more insight. He was talking about easy access, affordability and expansion. We would have been better off if not the liquidation factors. Thank you Derby👍🏽

It's amazes me that Gaddafi who actually paid the lion share for Africans to have Internet was totally excluded from your research, new to your channel,
