don't be deceived by the data coming from Africa, we don't have accurate data. Do u know how many people that have died from the virus whose deaths were not included in the data? Over 300 died in Kano within a week and they kept giving different reasons as the cause of death. Same thing in Bauchi, Kaduna and many other Nigerian states. Also, only few percentage of infected people have been tested in Nigeria and other African countries unlike outside Africa where a lot of tests just keep going on everyday.
The same way we don't know the actual population of Nigeria is also how we don't and may never know the actual number of victims of the virus in Nigeria and Africa.
