i don't run a fund and i am a markets guy, so i won't pretend i know what VC is like.
nevertheless, my recommendation would be slightly different:
1/- syndicate deals and take less execution risk, because a lot of ideas on the continent, especially the fintech ones, require sufficient funding to execute properly and generate growth
2/- push for m&a, exits and cut positions early, because latent/unrealised losses, or gains to a different extent, often "freeze" further investment decisions, creating zombie markets
