Which African countries allow Bitcoin transactions? Is Bitcoin currently used to purchase items in any African country?

I think there is some African countries that allow bitcoin transactions or maybe they haven't yet any rules about bitcoin and in general cryptocurrencies, Few of them are in the north of Africa. I heard that there is some countries in Africa that allow using bitcoin to buy some items, like electronics and paying bills, etc.

You can checked which countries allow bitcoin here : (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country_or_territory#Africa)

And you will be surprised that Google Searches about Bitcoin yielded Nigeria, South Africa and Ghana as the top 3 nations searching for the Keyword "Bitcoin". That's why I still believed that there's so much leg room for bitcoin in Africa. The only issues is infrastructure, but I guess everyone there has a cellphone so I'm thinking that there is a greater chance in the next couple of years, Africa will be the next continent that will adopt cryptocurrency.

I'm from Ghana and I don't seem to know any outfit that exchanges bitcoin for fiat money. I wish the google stats could translate to a "physical" booming bitcoin in the country.
