I honestly got absolutely none of that sentiment reading their press release - it reads just like "Twitter is opening a new office in Mexico to specifically support spanish language speakers - we chose Mexico as it has recently been appointed as the lead on the central american economic council..."

I think you're reading too much into Africa when a much simpler explanation is that Ghana isn't a country you can paint as "a developing African nation" - it's a stable country[1] with a rapidly growing middle class and low CoL.

Post soviet collapse eastern europe had a lot of highly trained folks and extremely low CoL so Microsoft and other folks moved into that area aggressively - Ghana looks like it's the next good market to go into aggressively.
