What the numbers say
In 2020, Togo's ICT service exports (BoP, current US$) rose 14.9% on 2019 (from US$30.97 million to US$35.59 million).

This year's change was 0.1 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 300.1% in 2008 and the biggest yearly fall was 72.7% in 2012. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2011 to 2020 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 1% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
