Dear Aziz, Thank you very much for the information and for the leadership role in the AFRALO. I would have really been very grateful to attend and participate in ICANN 51 in Los Angeles, but unfortunately, I did not obtain Visa to facilitate my travel. I will however participate remotely in all the ALAC and At Large sessions. Please convey my thanks and appreciation to other members of AFRALO and the Leadership present at LA for the opportunities granted me over the year to serve as Secretary. with the experience gained thus far, I will continue to represent Internet users locally, nationally, regional and globally. I have complete confidence that Barrack Otieno, incoming Secretary of AFRALO will continue and advance the work of AFRALO Secretariat, I will always be available for whatever advice he may stand in need of. I wish you all a fruitful deliberation at this joint AFRALO/AfrICANN Meeting.
