Thanks :  it has been added to the mirrors DB and will normally be
listed as a public mirror (and on http://mirror-status.centos.org /
http://centos.org/download/mirrors/ ) in the following minutes/hours.
Your IP has been whitelisted (check that it's working in the following
hour)

One question though : as that mirror will be the first one in Nigeria,
for mirrorlist we add multiple mirrors, and from "nearby countries" : my
understanding is that South Africa would be the best solution from a
interconnect/link point of view. Do you confirm (and/or comment) ?

Kind Regards,
