This very sad news. Olive was a very dear friend, ally and encourager.

He will be sorely missed for his cheerfulness.

My thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones at this moment.

Dear Members,

I have just arrived Hamburg to hear the shocking sad news of the death of Olivier Kouami who died from a heart attack. 

Olivier is the current co-chair of the AFRALO newsletter team and an active leader within AFRALO community and internet governance community as a whole. Oliver was also very involved in the open source community (FOSSFA) which was where I first got to meet and work with him over 15years ago.

My condolences to his family and the entire Africa internet community.

Regards

This is indeed very sad news. We had a good discussion just a month ago. The Internet community has lost a very active and influential member.

May his soul rest in peace. Deepest condolences to his family, friends and the entire ICANN community.
