I've been receiving complains via Facebook from people of Angola about not being able to create new accounts, some know something about it? They receive the as if the IP was blocked, however we receive more then 5 complains just in the Commons FB page.
Any ideas?
Have them hit whatismyip.org and tell us what shows up..,

Did not we have some mass vandalism from Angola some time ago, and then measures had to be taken? I do not remember the details.

Yep, none of them implied massive and preventive blocks. There's something broken needing further investigations then.

Let's wait and see what the IP info says. Might be case of an ISP routing everyone thru a single public IP. Or it might be a range block due to ip hoping disruption.

Maybe caused by https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T154698 and their ISP using a proxy that handles IP-related headers in a very broken way? If that's the case, they should be seeing something about private IP ranges in the block message.
