Hi Seun

I will publish it all and how the team came to that final slate. I will also include the external pressure and attempted interference that we faced with the team yet the NOMCOM is supposed to be an independent committee which even an Afrinic CEO or Internal legal office must never attempt to manipulate. 

Like I have indicated, it's going to be an interesting case study and a great comparison for the future. 

Cheers,
./noah

Bro in your publication, just remember to indicate if there were other qualified candidates or not. When 2 or very few candidates exists that meets the requirement, eliminating to remain a sole candidate should not be a core goal of nomcom
 
I am not a fan of a single candidate but if there were no other applicants that meets the basic nomination requirements then there will be nothing to slate other than the sole candidate which is fine. 

As I said in the past, one of the critical role of nomcom is to produce a competitive slate..I want to assume there were no other qualified candidates for that region and considering that this current nomcom did not have so much time on their hands to attempt lengthy extensions we live with what we have.

Well

The 2022 Board Election which were stopped through a court order.

While reading that affidavit, there were a number of complaints and one of them was that; the NOMCOM for which I was Chair, had slated only one Candidate for the North African Seat. That Candidate was Prof.Habib.

I will make be publishing the same at different forums to form part of an interesting case study.

Cheers,
Noah

Well Done!

I think at a certain point in time, back in 2022, when there was a slate of candidates, the NomCom was discriminated for slating one candidate. What changed now?

Dear Resource and Community Members,


We are writing to inform you that there will be no election for Board Seat 1 (Northern Africa region), as only one suitable candidate has been retained by the Nomination Committee. Consequently, there being only one candidate for the one (1) seat to be filled for the Northern Africa region, the said candidate will be declared elected on 12 September 2025.
