Sending to West and Central Africa: timing and text

The region runs from UTC-1 in Cabo Verde to UTC+1 in Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad and western DR Congo, and UTC+2 in eastern DR Congo; none of these countries change clocks. Ghana, Senegal, Cote d'Ivoire, Mali and their neighbours keep UTC+0 all year.

English in Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, Sierra Leone and the Gambia fits GSM-7. French, the official language in most of the region, keeps é, è and à in GSM-7, and Portuguese in Cabo Verde, Guinea-Bissau and Sao Tome and Principe often switches to Unicode.

The API needs nothing region-specific: put numbers in international format (+ and the calling code), and each one is priced by its own country. How numbers are read
