I follow some African programmers on twitter. They aren't totally unheard of. I suspect most emigrate to Europe or America to find work, and no longer identify as African Programmers.
A fair point, but as an African that emigrated and is naturalised, I still identify myself as very much African as opposed to anything else. I suspect most Africans have very strong identities in that respect, but I can only speak for myself.
I used identify in the outward sense, not the inward. I.e. in a tag-line on twitter one wouldn't have "A rails developer in Mombasa," if they were really in Antwerp.
