A quick look on the internet and it’s coming up with the African bee is very similar to the European honey bee but if anything slightly smaller. The one thing that is common is they all say the African bee is more aggressive than the European bee, but then we know the books are not all that accurate sometimes and seasonal may influence this. JBM you have a bit of investigating to do and a contact with a local beekeeper would be good, perhaps your new friend the prince can pull a few strings. The one thing I know is the African bee is prone to absconding and the less handling the better also bait hives distributed around are a good thing.
