My boss needs it for his afternoon session. I'd also need to give him the source.

1. Well, here is a list of all the UN member states from the UN website.

You'd have to go through and figure out which ones are African countries.

2. I found this one

which breaks it down. It looks like 57 of 191 countries are from Africa which puts the percentage at 29.84.
