<br>> with a<br>> Senegal-based Registrar – <a href="http://Kheweul.com">Kheweul.com</a> SA from Dakar.<br>><br>> "We have accreditation agreements with more than 890<br>> Registrars across the<br>> world – and this is only the second in Africa," said
<br>> Anne-Rachel Inné,<br>> ICANN's Regional Liaison for Africa. "ICANN is continually<br>> working to expand<br>> its international participation and representation – and this<br>> agreement is<br>
> an important step forward in that."<br>><br>> <a href="http://Kheweul.com">Kheweul.com</a> has been accredited to register domain names from<br>> the .biz,<br>> .com, .info, .name, .net, .org, and .pro top-level domains.
<br>><br>> "We're proud to be the first ICANN-accredited Registrar in<br>> West Africa and<br>> the second in Africa," said Mouhamet Diop, Chairman and CEO of<br>> <a href="http://Kheweul.com">

<br>> promote the<br>> digitalization of African cultural heritage and help the<br>> preserve of African<br>> multimedia content."<br>><br>> ICANN successfully introduced competition in the registrar
