The government in Ghana has pledged to improve cyber-security in the country.
It has set up a taskforce called the National Computer Emergency Response Team which it said will tackle cyber-crime and help protect children online.
Exactly how this will operate in practice in unclear but the government stressed that improved communication between private internet companies and the authorities would lie at its heart.
Internet penetration is currently low in Ghana, with just 20% of the population using the internet according to data from Internet World Stats, making it a market with huge future potential.Â
