Questions: Why don't African countries try to become IT outsourcing centers like India?

This questions pop in my mind today because Amazon open their biggest campus in India today. Isn't it cheaper for African countries to become IT centers as customer support(most of the continent speak major global languages -english,french, portuguese) , we have fiber optics around the continent.

What is preventing African countries from becoming IT hubs either as customer support centers or software engineering?

The lobby firms that eat the blood of innocent Africans in their bid for money in lobbying for corrupt despotic regimes.

https://ethsat.com/2017/02/tplf-pay-1-8-million-usd-u-s-lobbying-firm/

The MOU was signed by Girma Biru Geda, Ethiopia’s ambassador to the U.S. and Greg Lowman, partner with SGR.

DLA Piper had campaigned against a bill by the U.S. Congress that condemn the regime’s handling of human rights and arbitrary detention of dissents and critical journalists.

These are the US lobby firms that deserve condemnation. I'm sure nothing stops them from doing the same for other governments that are responsible for even more violent crimes and violence. These are firms that make it impossible for innocents to live in peace. The reason why innocents are targeted and arrested, tortured and murdered.
