Well if you are targeting local SERP, you can try registering a local country-level domain, as those rank fairly well for locally searched keywords on Google. You can also register a Google Business, and have the address verified by requesting a verification code from Google, and once verified, your business will pop up whenever a specific keyword is searched - Google Business even has your contact number that the prospect can click and call immediately on their smartphone.

Africa is big enough. What countries? Anycase, guess local Googles are the most popular search engines there. So make everything required gain top Google SERPs.

For popular keywords and search terms you can use Google Trends, you can sort out by country, etc.
Use social media (I also suggest creating FB group as they tend to grow much faster than pages), target countries that you want in paid advertisements.
Keep testing and experimenting - maybe your product can be popular in other continents too.
