It's interesting to read a blog about Internet Governance and Freedom 
from an African Perspective.  I have a few minor comments:

   "However, to maintain interoperability, all technical and policy aspects
    of the underlying core infrastructure and the principal namespaces are
    administered by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
   (ICANN), headquartered in Marina del Rey, California."

In my opinion the technical aspects are not administered by the 
Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.

   "ICANN oversees the assignment of globally unique identifiers on 
the Internet,
    including domain names, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, application port
    numbers in the transport protocols, and many other parameters."

In my opinion ICANN does not oversee the assignment of application 
port numbers in the transport protocols, and many other parameters.
