I mean the local telco is in monopoly or the second is not really 
competitive(if  i am wrong RH cant tell us), what expensive will be the 
cost of the IPv4 addresses this telco will be able to buy and sell them 
at is price to his consumers. So for me there is two ways to solve this 
problem:
- the local regulatory agency must promote competition by opening the 
Internet market (licenced  by need others operators);
- the Afrinic must progressivelly stop selling the IPv4 addresses  to 
all operators and like he is doing continue promoting IPv6,
