I actually did some more followup this week and heard back from the author of this FB post:

Found something interesting on facebook! 

(name removed) Not completely sure, but we think The Amazing Race was filmed right down the road from our house today in Accra. Though it could've been some other American show where they run around like in a race and have cameras following after them.

we didn’t see much (only the vans and camera crews)  Sorry :(    But our friends later saw one team running down the beach road with cameras running after them.

Sorry I don’t have much for you. You’re probably limited to the info from Africa because nobody knew what in the world it was....

I got the impression from the broadcast preview that Michael might reach his physical limits during this next leg.], so if he's the one requiring medical attention, I wouldn't be surprised.

The detour is probably the "wheel and stick" task or the "wheelbarrow" task. It appears that they are very close together and leads to the possibility of a U-Turn. I think it is too early for a U-turn.....but you never know anymore.

The wire bendy thingy is the roadblock, for several reasons (unless new videos prove me otherwise)

1. If it was a detour, Kevin would have certainly helped his dad
or
2. Michael could have handed the thing over to Kevin to help.

The hoop rolling is not a roadblock -- we have video of both Nick and Vicki performing the task. We have video of Michael saying "I don't think I can make it back," which makes me think both team members have to take the hoop to a certain point and back to complete the task, like a relay.

Boxing is the roadblock.

I am not having any luck finding the printing press adjacent to the boxing ring. Looks like Mantonik Printing Press or something similar?

TAR13 had a U-Turn on leg three that no one used, although Nick & Starr nearly used it on Kelly & Christy.  And TAR15 had an unaired one on leg three that Mika & Canaan wasted on Lance & Keri, who weren't even behind them.

Katie & Rachel are "uncertain?"  They were photographed in Arlanda's airport with Connor & Jonathan.

As said multiple times in the spoiler section, we believe that our ID is PROBABLY accurate, but the quality of the pic does not let us say so with 100% accuracy.

Oh.  Well, I checked the pic again, and I certainly recognized Katie's backpack in that.  It looked exactly like what I saw in the recent episode.

And the backpacks and the shoes were what we heavily relied on for the first ID.

I think it is almost certainly them, but we try to be careful...if we can say 100%, we make that clear...if there are doubts, we say so.
