Dear AFRALO Community, I hope you’re all well! Regarding the announcement for ALAC regional representative nominations, I would like to nominate Professor Aziz Hilali for a second term as the ALAC representative for AFRALO. As many of you know, Aziz is a passionate advocate for AFRALO and consistently brings African end-users' perspectives to the ICANN community. His extensive connections across the community, hosted ICANN and us in Morocco multiple times, besides his deep experience in Internet governance as the founder and leader of ISOC Morocco, make him exceptionally qualified for this role. During his first ALAC term (2023-2025), Aziz has been active, making impactful contributions to ICANN policy development while strongly representing our regional interests in global Internet governance discussions. Supporting his nomination for a second term would ensure valuable continuity and strong leadership for AFRALO within ALAC. His continued service would build upon the relationships and initiatives he has already established. Thank you! Best regards, Mohamed Elbashir

Dear AFRALO Community, I hope this message finds you well! I am excited to nominate Abdeljalil Bachar Bong for the position of Vice President of AFRALO. Abdeljalil has been a dedicated advocate for the African Internet community, bringing a wealth of experience and expertise in Internet governance to the table. His tenure as Secretary of AFRALO from 2020 to 2022 and again from 2022 to 2024 highlights his commitment and capability. He also serves as the President of the House of Africa, an AFRALO ALS, further showcasing his leadership within our community. Abdeljalil has actively participated in numerous working groups, including serving as Co-Chair of the AFRALO Rules of Procedure and as a member of the Strategic Planning Committee for the ICANN Africa region (FY21-FY25). His work ethic is commendable, and his fluency in English and French, along with a good understanding of Arabic, enhances his ability to engage with a diverse audience. I believe that electing Abdeljalil as Vice President would ensure robust leadership and continuity as we navigate the complexities of global Internet governance together. His vision and dedication will be invaluable to our community moving forward. Thank you for considering this nomination.

Dear Staff, I like to support the nomination of Aziz, Abdeljeli, Hadia for the positions they have been nominated to and would like to nominate Bram Fudzulani for the nomcom position.

Dear AFRALO Community,
I hope you’re all well!
Regarding the announcement for ALAC regional representative nominations, I would like to nominate Professor Aziz Hilali for a second term as the ALAC representative for AFRALO.
As many of you know, Aziz is a passionate advocate for AFRALO and consistently brings African end-users' perspectives to the ICANN community. His extensive connections across the community, hosted ICANN and us in Morocco multiple times, besides his deep experience in Internet governance as the founder and leader of ISOC Morocco, make him exceptionally qualified for this role.
During his first ALAC term (2023-2025), Aziz has been active, making impactful contributions to ICANN policy development while strongly representing our regional interests in global Internet governance discussions.
Supporting his nomination for a second term would ensure valuable continuity and strong leadership for AFRALO within ALAC. His continued service would build upon the relationships and initiatives he has already established.
Thank you!

Dear AFRALO Community,
I hope you’re all well!
Regarding the announcement for ALAC regional representative nominations, I would like to nominate Professor Aziz Hilali for a second term as the ALAC representative for AFRALO.
As many of you know, Aziz is a passionate advocate for AFRALO and consistently brings African end-users' perspectives to the ICANN community. His extensive connections across the community, hosted ICANN and us in Morocco multiple times, besides his deep experience in Internet governance as the founder and leader of ISOC Morocco, make him exceptionally qualified for this role.
During his first ALAC term (2023-2025), Aziz has been active, making impactful contributions to ICANN policy development while strongly representing our regional interests in global Internet governance discussions.
Supporting his nomination for a second term would ensure valuable continuity and strong leadership for AFRALO within ALAC. Hi s continued service would build upon the relationships and initiatives he has already established.
Thank you!
Best regards,
Mohamed Elbashir

Hello All. Hadia, you have my FULL SUPPORT for a second term. Even though I contested with you in your first tenure but your antecedents in the last two years has proven your victory was and is appropriate for AFRALO. For over 25 years since I have been a member of AFRALO, I have never seen ANY versatile leader as you. You are not only intelligent, you are detribalised and not motivated by premordial allegiance of favouritism and nepotism that has over the years driven some of the past leadership of this organisation. I know some might hate me the more for this comment but I'm used to being brutally blunt. You are innovative and open to intelligent and superior arguements. You are never threatened by any opposing views The saying that the taste of the pudding is in the eating is apt in your case. Until you became our Chair, I had no opportunity of "tasting or eating" from your leadership prowess. But now I have tasted and can convincingly proclaim, you are good to be "eaten".😊 Congratulations because, I do not see anyone challenging you this time around. Carry Go! Nothing do you!!!

During his first ALAC term (2023-2025), Aziz has been active, making impactful contributions to ICANN policy development while strongly representing our regional interests in global Internet governance discussions.
Supporting his nomination for a second term would ensure valuable continuity and strong leadership for AFRALO within ALAC. Hi s continued service would build upon the relationships and initiatives he has already established.
Thank you!
Best regards,
Mohamed Elbashir

Dear Pastor Peters,I'm truly humbled and deeply touched by your kind words. Coming from someone with your vast experience and longstanding commitment to AFRALO, your email means a lot to me. I have always appreciated your honesty, your boldness and dedication to progress. Even more so, I value the fact that despite our earlier contest, you have chosen to focus on unity and shared purpose for the betterment of AFRALO. Leadership is never a one-person effort it is enriched by the work, voices, contributions and constructive challenges of passionate leaders and members like you. Thank you again for your confidence you've expressed. Let's keep building AFRALO together - stronger more inclusive and more impactful.

Hadia, you have my FULL SUPPORT for a second term. Even though I contested with you in your first tenure but your antecedents in the last two years has proven your victory was and is appropriate for AFRALO. For over 25 years since I have been a member of AFRALO, I have never seen ANY versatile leader as you. You are not only intelligent, you are detribalised and not motivated by premordial allegiance of favouritism and nepotism that has over the years driven some of the past leadership of this organisation. I know some might hate me the more for this comment but I'm used to being brutally blunt. You are innovative and open to intelligent and superior arguements. You are never threatened by any opposing views The saying that the taste of the pudding is in the eating is apt in your case. Until you became our Chair, I had no opportunity of "tasting or eating" from your leadership prowess.

Coming from someone with your vast experience and longstanding commitment to AFRALO, your email means a lot to me. I have always appreciated your honesty, your boldness and dedication to progress. Even more so, I value the fact that despite our earlier contest, you have chosen to focus on unity and shared purpose for the betterment of AFRALO. Leadership is never a one-person effort it is enriched by the work, voices, contributions and constructive challenges of passionate leaders and members like you.

Hadia, you have my FULL SUPPORT for a second term. Even though I contested with you in your first tenure but your antecedents in the last two years has proven your victory was and is appropriate for AFRALO. For over 25 years since I have been a member of AFRALO, I have never seen ANY versatile leader as you. You are not only intelligent, you are detribalised and not motivated by premordial allegiance of favouritism and nepotism that has over the years driven some of the past leadership of this organisation. I know some might hate me the more for this comment but I'm used to being brutally blunt. You are innovative and open to intelligent and superior arguements. You are never threatened by any opposing views The saying that the taste of the pudding is in the eating is apt in your case. Until you became our Chair, I had no opportunity of "tasting or eating" from your leadership prowess. But now I have tasted and can convincingly proclaim, you are good to be "eaten".😊 Congratulations because, I do not see anyone challenging you this time around. Carry Go! Nothing do you!!!

His extensive connections across the community, hosted ICANN and us in Morocco multiple times, besides his deep experience in Internet governance as the founder and leader of ISOC Morocco, make him exceptionally qualified for this role. During his first ALAC term (2023-2025), Aziz has been active, making impactful contributions to ICANN policy development while strongly representing our regional interests in global Internet governance discussions.

Dear Staff, Please accept this correspondence as confirmation of my acceptance of the nomination for the AFRALO NomCom representative position. My candidacy is underscored by my prior engagement within the AFRALO community, including my tenure as Co-chair of the Outreach and Engagement (O&E) working group. Furthermore, my active participation in various working groups within the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the ICANN ecosystem. My commitment to Internet Governance in Africa is demonstrated through my current service as a member of the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) for the African Internet Governance Forum (AfIGF). This builds upon my previous experience as a MAG member for the global Internet Governance Forum (IGF) from 2021 to 2024. As a dedicated supporter of AFRALO's mission and its integral role within ICANN, I am confident that, with the support of community members, I can effectively and strategically represent the AFRALO community within the NomCom. Sincerely, Bram ________________________________ From: Seun Ojedeji via AFRI-Discuss <afri-discuss@icann.org> Sent: Monday, April 14, 2025 10:18 PM To: mbashir@mbash.net <mbashir@mbash.net> Cc: afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org <afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Subject: [AFRI-Discuss] Re: 2025 At-Large Leadership Call for Nominations Dear Staff, I like to support the nomination of Aziz, Abdeljeli, Hadia for the positions they have been nominated to and would like to nominate Bram Fudzulani for the nomcom position.

As many of you know, Aziz is a passionate advocate for AFRALO and consistently brings African end-users' perspectives to the ICANN community. His extensive connections across the community, hosted ICANN and us in Morocco multiple times, besides his deep experience in Internet governance as the founder and leader of ISOC Morocco, make him exceptionally qualified for this role.
During his first ALAC term (2023-2025), Aziz has been active, making impactful contributions to ICANN policy development while strongly representing our regional interests in global Internet governance discussions.
Supporting his nomination for a second term would ensure valuable continuity and strong leadership for AFRALO within ALAC. His continued service would build upon the relationships and initiatives he has already established.
Thank you!
Best regards,
Mohamed Elbashir

Dear AFRALO Colleagues, I am writing to formally nominate Hadia Elminiawi for a second term as AFRALO Chair and Abdejalil Bachar Bong as Vice Chair. Hadia has consistently demonstrated strong leadership, a collaborative spirit, and deep commitment to advancing AFRALO’s goals and the broader At-Large community. Her contributions during her first term have been instrumental in enhancing regional visibility and engagement within ICANN processes. Abdeljalil, with his proven dedication and extensive experience in Internet governance and community mobilization, is well-positioned to support the Chair and help steer AFRALO towards even greater impact. I believe both Hadia and Abdejalil have the passion, vision, and capabilities to lead AFRALO in the coming term, and I urge the community to support their nominations.

Dear AFRALO colleagues and friends, Since you entrusted me with your confidence, I have strived to serve our RALO with dedication, relying on our current leaders: *Aziz, Hadia, Bram, Bukola, and Raïhanath*. I want to assure you that the current leadership team, under Hadia’s guidance, despite our imperfections, works every day with commitment and determination to improve AFRALO in a progressive and inclusive way. We are constantly reflecting on how to better involve all members in the decision-making process, with the goal of building a truly representative and participatory structure. In this spirit, I encourage you to support the renewal of the mandates of those leaders (*Aziz, Hadia*) who are willing to continue their service, and to endorse the candidacy of our brother *Abdeldjalil *as Vice Chair, as well as our brother *Bram *for the NomCom position. We need your support and resilient collaboration to continue building a strong and united RALO that reflects the full potential of our continent. In parallel, I kindly remind you of my call for contributions to the AFRALO joint statement for ICANN83. Your ideas and proposals are most welcome to help elevate our region’s voice on the global ICANN stage. *Together, let’s make AFRALO shine within the global Internet governance ecosystem.* With heartfelt thanks, -- Hervé Sètondji HOUNZANDJI Le lun. 14 avr. 2025 à 20:29, Heidi Ullrich via AFRI-Discuss < afri-discuss@icann.org> a écrit :

Dear Herve I am just reading your contributions to the current calls for nominations and my attention drawn to Dr. Jabera rejoinder. First, it is very wrong for you as current GS to be partisan in trying to influence whom the community support or not support. You are GS to everyone here and NO WHERE IN THE HISTORY of AFRALO Leadership has ANYONE- GS or Chairman OPENLY canvas for votes for members seeking electoral value. You have by this singular action abused your office as GS. All you owe anyone of those contesting is your vote. Going ahead to canvas for votes openly is an impeachable offence if you ask me. I know you are doing this albeit to gratify some of these members over their roles in your emergence at our keenly contested GS election. You don't have to rub it on our faces. I have supported you as GS but I can never support what is wrong. Please, withdraw your letter and apologise to all the members here for your partisanship. This is not acceptable. As to Dr. Jabera proposal for accountability and transparency by anyone we have elected to give account of their stewardship...hmmmm...that is a tall order going by the culture of the mafia like operations within AFRALO as to who becomes what. It is a system that can only be solved if all of you had supported my proposed amendments to our rules of procedures in terms of tenure and how many times anyone can contest. I hope one day, you will all come to appreciate those proposals. I'm in the interim, *Me I go dey sit down look* . Yes. We are watching. Note: in the midst of all these do not get me wrong, there are still leaders who have demonstrated good leadership quality like Hadia few others. Let us hope and pray that, she will bequeath us a lasting legacy that will set the stage for a renewed and revitalised AFRALO and not the current band wagon mentality after her 4 yrs tenure.

Dear AFRALO colleagues and friends,
Since you entrusted me with your confidence, I have strived to serve our RALO with dedication, relying on our current leaders: *Aziz, Hadia, Bram, Bukola, and Raïhanath*.
I want to assure you that the current leadership team, under Hadia’s guidance, despite our imperfections, works every day with commitment and determination to improve AFRALO in a progressive and inclusive way. We are constantly reflecting on how to better involve all members in the decision-making process, with the goal of building a truly representative and participatory structure.
In this spirit, I encourage you to support the renewal of the mandates of those leaders (*Aziz, Hadia*) who are willing to continue their service, and to endorse the candidacy of our brother *Abdeldjalil *as Vice Chair, as well as our brother *Bram *for the NomCom position.
We need your support and resilient collaboration to continue building a strong and united RALO that reflects the full potential of our continent.
In parallel, I kindly remind you of my call for contributions to the AFRALO joint statement for ICANN83. Your ideas and proposals are most welcome to help elevate our region’s voice on the global ICANN stage.
*Together, let’s make AFRALO shine within the global Internet governance ecosystem.*

Dear Pastor Peters, People should understand that we are not trying to form a club of a few elite among us but empower even those with no connection from our local community. It is very unfortunate that we always have the same faces since AFRALO started as if we don't have new bloods to fill-up these positions. I will always support new blood rather than using AFRALO as a rubber stamp for the few of us who can not even speak about what they have achieved so far within our ecosystem. I know Internet Chapters have better networks to place as few leaders as they wish but we will always speak out to bring up new blood from our local community. I wish we could learn from Raymond on the way he is supporting new young leaders to come up from our own local communities. I hope Herves will withdraw his statement which is trying to influence, which is totally wrong. Eng. Hadia has done wonderful work in her term and we will surely add two more years. Let others request our votes if they wish to represent us there rather than the GS requesting a vote on their behalf which is totally wrong. He promised a lot of issues and we are still waiting on how he is working to meet his promises. Total abuse of power in favour of few.

Hello, Since the candidates, for now, are unopposed I don't see anything wrong with Herve's statement. As we all know if the candidates remain unopposed there won't be any voting. For me I will wish we have more new bloods showing interest in these roles as a learning process. Please let's calm tempers. This election too shall pass, just like others did. On this note, I call on others, especially the young ones to come boldly and contest. Cheers. --- Raymond Mamattah Accra, Ghana 🇬🇭 On Tue, 15 Apr 2025, 18:46 Matogoro Jabera, <jaberamatogoro@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear Pastor Peters,
People should understand that we are not trying to form a club of a few elite among us but empower even those with no connection from our local community. It is very unfortunate that we always have the same faces since AFRALO started as if we don't have new bloods to fill-up these positions.
I will always support new blood rather than using AFRALO as a rubber stamp for the few of us who can not even speak about what they have achieved so far within our ecosystem. I know Internet Chapters have better networks to place as few leaders as they wish but we will always speak out to bring up new blood from our local community.
I wish we could learn from Raymond on the way he is supporting new young leaders to come up from our own local communities. I hope Herves will withdraw his statement which is trying to influence, which is totally wrong. Eng. Hadia has done wonderful work in her term and we will surely add two more years. Let others request our votes if they wish to represent us there rather than the GS requesting a vote on their behalf which is totally wrong. He promised a lot of issues and we are still waiting on how he is working to meet his promises. Total abuse of power in favour of few.

Dear Herve
I am just reading your contributions to the current calls for nominations and my attention drawn to Dr. Jabera rejoinder.
First, it is very wrong for you as current GS to be partisan in trying to influence whom the community support or not support. You are GS to everyone here and NO WHERE IN THE HISTORY of AFRALO Leadership has ANYONE- GS or Chairman OPENLY canvas for votes for members seeking electoral value.
You have by this singular action abused your office as GS.
All you owe anyone of those contesting is your vote. Going ahead to canvas for votes openly is an impeachable offence if you ask me. I know you are doing this albeit to gratify some of these members over their roles in your emergence at our keenly contested GS election. You don't have to rub it on our faces.
I have supported you as GS but I can never support what is wrong. Please, withdraw your letter and apologise to all the members here for your partisanship. This is not acceptable.
As to Dr. Jabera proposal for accountability and transparency by anyone we have elected to give account of their stewardship...hmmmm...that is a tall order going by the culture of the mafia like operations within AFRALO as to who becomes what. It is a system that can only be solved if all of you had supported my proposed amendments to our rules of procedures in terms of tenure and how many times anyone can contest.
I hope one day, you will all come to appreciate those proposals. I'm in the interim, *Me I go dey sit down look* . Yes. We are watching.
Note: in the midst of all these do not get me wrong, there are still leaders who have demonstrated good leadership quality like Hadia few others. Let us hope and pray that, she will bequeath us a lasting legacy that will set the stage for a renewed and revitalised AFRALO and not the current band wagon mentality after her 4 yrs tenure.
God bless AFRALO.

Dear AFRALO colleagues and friends,
Since you entrusted me with your confidence, I have strived to serve our RALO with dedication, relying on our current leaders: *Aziz, Hadia, Bram, Bukola, and Raïhanath*.
I want to assure you that the current leadership team, under Hadia’s guidance, despite our imperfections, works every day with commitment and determination to improve AFRALO in a progressive and inclusive way. We are constantly reflecting on how to better involve all members in the decision-making process, with the goal of building a truly representative and participatory structure.
In this spirit, I encourage you to support the renewal of the mandates of those leaders (*Aziz, Hadia*) who are willing to continue their service, and to endorse the candidacy of our brother *Abdeldjalil *as Vice Chair, as well as our brother *Bram *for the NomCom position.
We need your support and resilient collaboration to continue building a strong and united RALO that reflects the full potential of our continent.
In parallel, I kindly remind you of my call for contributions to the AFRALO joint statement for ICANN83. Your ideas and proposals are most welcome to help elevate our region’s voice on the global ICANN stage.
*Together, let’s make AFRALO shine within the global Internet governance ecosystem.*

Dear colleagues and friends, I would like to acknowledge the rich exchange that has animated the debate on neutrality and inclusive development within AFRALO for some time now. The opinions expressed here testify to a collective commitment to make our network a pan-African platform for equity, inclusion and transparency. Far from being a passive concept, neutrality is an active commitment to equity, inclusion, and transparency. It is the cornerstone of legitimacy, allowing for the balanced participation of all communities, especially those that are often marginalized in global decision-making processes. It conditions this legitimacy through its contributions to global internet governance processes. Similarly, inclusive development must remain an operational objective that can be translated into concrete actions: local capacity building, equal representation, equitable access to resources and the valorization of community contributions. It is now up to AFRALO to turn this debate into a sustainable dynamic, each at its own level, by remaining a space where every voice, regardless of its origin or the type of ALes, counts and contributes to the design of a shared, fair and inclusive digital future. This debate has also strengthened the internal cohesion of AFRALO, and laid the foundations for a renewed collective commitment. It is now essential to formalize the ways raised into measurable actions, in order to turn inclusivity and neutrality into concrete levers of governance. This approach is also crucial to the smooth functioning of the ALAC. In short, AFRALO will maintain this approach with rigor, transparency, and ambition to faithfully reflect the general interest of the digital community. Sincerely yours, Le mar. 15 avr. 2025 à 21:04, Raymond Mamattah via AFRI-Discuss < afri-discuss@icann.org> a écrit :

Dear Raymond. We hope you understand and appreciate the context of our position on the actions of the GS? Whether the candidates were or are unopposed is not the crux of this exchange. Let me remind you again if I may. As a sitting GS answerable to ALL members, it was and very wrong for him to openly canvas for votes for anyone contesting when the process of nomination is ongoing. It is like you telling me that Jonathan as the current ALAC Chairman would openly come out to do the same for those contesting the ALAC seats. My brother, we should learn to call a spade a spade, and not an agricultural tool! All these attempts to try and be nice or not offend instead of telling people the truth is what is destroying the pan African growth. As for Dr. Jabera, like I said, we will continue to see the same faces and recycling of AFRALO leaders or the same people deciding for us who to lead us UNTIL we are bold enough to amend our ROP. If not we are just receiving ourselves. Have a great day all. *Pastor Peters Osawaru OMORAGBON* *-Executive President/CEO Nurses Across the Borders Humanitarian Initiative-(an NGO in Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations-ECOSOC)* *-First Nigerian United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Designated Contact Person-since 2004* *-**Permanent United Nations Representative for Nurses Across the Borders-since 2005* *-Director for International Liaison, Nigerian Nurses Charitable Association, United Kingdom-NNCA-UK).* *-President, Diaspora Nurses Association of Nigeria-DNAN* *-Fellow Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers-ICANN-Since 2010* *-Fellow Federal University of Petroleum Resources Centre for Sustainable Development (FUPRECSD)* *-**Fellow, Open Society Institute-Budapest* *-**General Secretary, Civil Society Network of NGOs on Climate Change* *-Board Member-Conference of NGOS in Special Consultative Status with the United Nations-CONGO* *-Member Steering Committee Regional Committee for Africa-CONGO* *-Fellow Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers-ICANN* *-Treasurer-Central Association of Nigerians in the United Kingdom-CANUK 2013-2015* *-Financial Secretary, Central Association of Nigerians in the United Kingdom-CANUK 2015-2017.* *Url: www.nursesacrosstheborders.org <http://www.nursesacrosstheborders.org/>, * On Tue, 15 Apr 2025, 20:03 Raymond Mamattah, <mamattah.raymond@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello,
Since the candidates, for now, are unopposed I don't see anything wrong with Herve's statement.
As we all know if the candidates remain unopposed there won't be any voting.
For me I will wish we have more new bloods showing interest in these roles as a learning process.
Please let's calm tempers. This election too shall pass, just like others did.
On this note, I call on others, especially the young ones to come boldly and contest.
Cheers. --- Raymond Mamattah Accra, Ghana 🇬🇭

Dear Pastor Peters,
People should understand that we are not trying to form a club of a few elite among us but empower even those with no connection from our local community. It is very unfortunate that we always have the same faces since AFRALO started as if we don't have new bloods to fill-up these positions.
I will always support new blood rather than using AFRALO as a rubber stamp for the few of us who can not even speak about what they have achieved so far within our ecosystem. I know Internet Chapters have better networks to place as few leaders as they wish but we will always speak out to bring up new blood from our local community.
I wish we could learn from Raymond on the way he is supporting new young leaders to come up from our own local communities. I hope Herves will withdraw his statement which is trying to influence, which is totally wrong. Eng. Hadia has done wonderful work in her term and we will surely add two more years. Let others request our votes if they wish to represent us there rather than the GS requesting a vote on their behalf which is totally wrong. He promised a lot of issues and we are still waiting on how he is working to meet his promises. Total abuse of power in favour of few.

Dear Herve
I am just reading your contributions to the current calls for nominations and my attention drawn to Dr. Jabera rejoinder.
First, it is very wrong for you as current GS to be partisan in trying to influence whom the community support or not support. You are GS to everyone here and NO WHERE IN THE HISTORY of AFRALO Leadership has ANYONE- GS or Chairman OPENLY canvas for votes for members seeking electoral value.
You have by this singular action abused your office as GS.
All you owe anyone of those contesting is your vote. Going ahead to canvas for votes openly is an impeachable offence if you ask me. I know you are doing this albeit to gratify some of these members over their roles in your emergence at our keenly contested GS election. You don't have to rub it on our faces.
I have supported you as GS but I can never support what is wrong. Please, withdraw your letter and apologise to all the members here for your partisanship. This is not acceptable.
As to Dr. Jabera proposal for accountability and transparency by anyone we have elected to give account of their stewardship...hmmmm...that is a tall order going by the culture of the mafia like operations within AFRALO as to who becomes what. It is a system that can only be solved if all of you had supported my proposed amendments to our rules of procedures in terms of tenure and how many times anyone can contest.
I hope one day, you will all come to appreciate those proposals. I'm in the interim, *Me I go dey sit down look* . Yes. We are watching.
Note: in the midst of all these do not get me wrong, there are still leaders who have demonstrated good leadership quality like Hadia few others. Let us hope and pray that, she will bequeath us a lasting legacy that will set the stage for a renewed and revitalised AFRALO and not the current band wagon mentality after her 4 yrs tenure.
God bless AFRALO.

Dear Hervé,
While I support your suggestions, I would be happy if every members would be available to tell us what he/she has managed to achieve while serving their positions.
We should try as much as possible to be away with business as usual kind of selections and nominations. It is high time elected candidates to work beyond their normal expectations to serve us.
This should also imply with you too!

Dear AFRALO colleagues and friends,
Since you entrusted me with your confidence, I have strived to serve our RALO with dedication, relying on our current leaders: *Aziz, Hadia, Bram, Bukola, and Raïhanath*.
I want to assure you that the current leadership team, under Hadia’s guidance, despite our imperfections, works every day with commitment and determination to improve AFRALO in a progressive and inclusive way. We are constantly reflecting on how to better involve all members in the decision-making process, with the goal of building a truly representative and participatory structure.
In this spirit, I encourage you to support the renewal of the mandates of those leaders (*Aziz, Hadia*) who are willing to continue their service, and to endorse the candidacy of our brother *Abdeldjalil *as Vice Chair, as well as our brother *Bram *for the NomCom position.
We need your support and resilient collaboration to continue building a strong and united RALO that reflects the full potential of our continent.
In parallel, I kindly remind you of my call for contributions to the AFRALO joint statement for ICANN83. Your ideas and proposals are most welcome to help elevate our region’s voice on the global ICANN stage.

Dear AFRALO Community and Atl-Large Staff, I would like to nominate myself as a ALAC Delegate to the NomCom. I believe my engagement in ICANN since ICANN75 has allowed for more engagement in ICANN bringing newcomers into ICANN with local and regional impact through the ZambiaSIG among other forums. *SOI* I have been actively engaged in ICANN since ICANN75, leading to being an ALS Rep for the Internet Society Zambia Chapter. This has seen more Zambians and other Africans especially in my region (Southern Africa) engage more in ICANN and the IG ecosystem. Regarding diversity, being Internet Society Zambia Chapter president gives me broad access to different players in the Domain space at local and regional level. Further, being part of the Zambia IGF and the Zambia Youth IGF coordinator, allows for a broad experience in internet Governance thereby having an open mind and wide consultation approach in decision making. And in building capacity for Internet governance, which includes taking some ICANN courses, I pioneered the Zambia School on Internet Governance, running the 4th Cohort this year. Running the school allows for me to be neutral and objective in selecting applicants, done the past 3 years. Another ICANN engagement where selection of participants involved the ICANN DNS security workshop with ISPs, Registry and TLD operators among others at SAFNOG8. These are among a few times where selection of qualifying candidates was done. As such, I would like to be considered for the ALAC Delegate to the NomCom. I believe a new perspective, mind and approach to some AFRALO matters will definitely make an impact in growing AFRALO engagement, visibility and Impact in the region as it relates to ICANN.

Hello all, I am writing to wholeheartedly support Levy's nomination. His dedication and contributions extend far beyond Southern Africa, and we in the Western part of the continent can personally attest to his tireless efforts. What's more impressive is that at a young age, Levy has already demonstrated remarkable commitment and innovation. He brings fresh, youthful ideas to the table, injecting new energy and perspectives that are invaluable to our community. His expertise and passion make him an ideal candidate for ALAC Delegate to the NomCom . Thank you.

Dear AFRALO Community and At-Large Staff, Having had the opportunity to work closely with Levy through the PAYAIG working groups and other youth-focused initiatives in Internet Governance, I am pleased to express my humble support for his self-nomination as an ALAC Delegate to the NomCom. Levy’s consistent engagement in ICANN since ICANN75, especially from a youth and regional development perspective, has been remarkable. His efforts in spearheading the Zambia School on Internet Governance and his leadership roles within the Zambia IGF ecosystem reflect a deep commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and capacity building across the Southern African region. His collaborative spirit, forward-thinking approach, and dedication to bringing new voices into ICANN spaces truly embody the values needed for the NomCom. I strongly believe Levy’s nomination will bring a valuable perspective and further strengthen AFRALO’s impact within the ICANN community.

I believe my engagement in ICANN since ICANN75 has allowed for more engagement in ICANN bringing newcomers into ICANN with local and regional impact through the ZambiaSIG among other forums. SOI I have been actively engaged in ICANN since ICANN75, leading to being an ALS Rep for the Internet Society Zambia Chapter. This has seen more Zambians and other Africans especially in my region (Southern Africa) engage more in ICANN and the IG ecosystem. Regarding diversity, being Internet Society Zambia Chapter president gives me broad access to different players in the Domain space at local and regional level. Further, being part of the Zambia IGF and the Zambia Youth IGF coordinator, allows for a broad experience in internet Governance thereby having an open mind and wide consultation approach in decision making. And in building capacity for Internet governance, which includes taking some ICANN courses, I pioneered the Zambia School on Internet Governance, running the 4th Cohort this year. Running the school allows for me to be neutral and objective in selecting applicants, done the past 3 years. Another ICANN engagement where selection of participants involved the ICANN DNS security workshop with ISPs, Registry and TLD operators among others at SAFNOG8. These are among a few times where selection of qualifying candidates was done. As such, I would like to be considered for the ALAC Delegate to the NomCom. I believe a new perspective, mind and approach to some AFRALO matters will definitely make an impact in growing AFRALO engagement, visibility and Impact in the region as it relates to ICANN.

Dear Members of the AFRALO Community and Atl-Large Staff, It is with sincere admiration and unwavering confidence that I endorse the candidature of our esteemed colleague for the ALAC Delegate position to the NomCom. As a fellow of the Ghana School on Internet Governance, I have had the privilege to witness his dynamic engagement within the global Internet governance arena. From his early involvement since ICANN75 to his transformative leadership with the Internet Society Zambia Chapter and his inspirational work with the Zambia Youth IGF he has continuously demonstrated a passion for broadening participation and elevating regional voices. His role in pioneering the Zambia School on Internet Governance and supporting initiatives like the ICANN DNS security workshop stand as powerful testaments to his commitment to capacity building and objective, inclusive decision-making. His unique blend of technical expertise, strategic vision, and empathetic leadership is precisely what our community needs to further amplify the diverse perspectives of our region. By seamlessly weaving grassroots empowerment with innovative policy insights, he is not only poised to bridge the gap between local needs and global strategies but also to set the stage for a more equitable digital future. I wholeheartedly support his nomination for an ALAC Delegate seat on the NomCom. I am confident that his fresh perspective and deep-rooted commitment will bring about transformative change, enhancing AFRALO’s visibility and impact across the continent. In solidarity and with hopeful anticipation for what lies ahead, Abdul-Rafiu Fuseini Vice President GhanaSIG EC 2025, Fellow, Ghana School on Internet Governance On Wed, Apr 16, 2025, 1:54 PM Lavish Mawuena Mensah via AFRI-Discuss < afri-discuss@icann.org> wrote:

Dear AFRALO Community and At-Large Staff,
Having had the opportunity to work closely with Levy through the PAYAIG working groups and other youth-focused initiatives in Internet Governance, I am pleased to express my humble support for his self-nomination as an ALAC Delegate to the NomCom.
Levy’s consistent engagement in ICANN since ICANN75, especially from a youth and regional development perspective, has been remarkable. His efforts in spearheading the Zambia School on Internet Governance and his leadership roles within the Zambia IGF ecosystem reflect a deep commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and capacity building across the Southern African region.
His collaborative spirit, forward-thinking approach, and dedication to bringing new voices into ICANN spaces truly embody the values needed for the NomCom. I strongly believe Levy’s nomination will bring a valuable perspective and further strengthen AFRALO’s impact within the ICANN community.

Dear AFRALO Community and Atl-Large Staff,
I would like to nominate myself as a ALAC Delegate to the NomCom.
I believe my engagement in ICANN since ICANN75 has allowed for more engagement in ICANN bringing newcomers into ICANN with local and regional impact through the ZambiaSIG among other forums.
*SOI*
I have been actively engaged in ICANN since ICANN75, leading to being an ALS Rep for the Internet Society Zambia Chapter. This has seen more Zambians and other Africans especially in my region (Southern Africa) engage more in ICANN and the IG ecosystem.
Regarding diversity, being Internet Society Zambia Chapter president gives me broad access to different players in the Domain space at local and regional level. Further, being part of the Zambia IGF and the Zambia Youth IGF coordinator, allows for a broad experience in internet Governance thereby having an open mind and wide consultation approach in decision making.
And in building capacity for Internet governance, which includes taking some ICANN courses, I pioneered the Zambia School on Internet Governance, running the 4th Cohort this year.
Running the school allows for me to be neutral and objective in selecting applicants, done the past 3 years. Another ICANN engagement where selection of participants involved the ICANN DNS security workshop with ISPs, Registry and TLD operators among others at SAFNOG8.
These are among a few times where selection of qualifying candidates was done.
As such, I would like to be considered for the ALAC Delegate to the NomCom. I believe a new perspective, mind and approach to some AFRALO matters will definitely make an impact in growing AFRALO engagement, visibility and Impact in the region as it relates to ICANN.
Kind Regards

Dear AFRALO Community, I am writing to express my keen interest in serving as the ALAC Member (AFRALO Nominated). It would be a great honour to represent our dynamic region on the ALAC and contribute meaningfully to the advancement of end-user interests within ICANN. Below is my SOI My name is Jacob Odame-Baiden from Ghana. Over the years, I have built a strong foundation of engagement within the ICANN ecosystem. As Co-Founder and Vice President for Legal & Engagement at the EGIGFA ALS, I have led and contributed to several initiatives aimed at strengthening Internet Governance participation in Ghana and across the African continent. I am especially proud of how our efforts have supported a growing number of active contributors within ICANN and its various constituencies. Within AFRALO, I have had the privilege of volunteering on the Rules of Procedure (RoP) Committee and serving as a co-drafter of AFRALO Statements, including as pen-holder during ICANN77. These roles have deepened my appreciation of the collaborative and consultative processes that define our region’s engagement. My participation in ICANN goes back to 2019 and includes both in-person and virtual meetings. I am a proud alumnus of the ICANN Fellowship Program and a recent participant in the Policy Acceleration Program, which significantly enhanced my understanding of ICANN’s policy development mechanisms. Professionally, I am a technology lawyer with a focus on data protection, privacy, telecommunications, and media law. I also serve on the board of ActionAid Ghana and on the Steering Committee of the Internet Rights and Principles Coalition, where I advocate for digital inclusion and human rights online. I bring to this role a multidisciplinary background—spanning Computer Science, Economics, Communication Technology & Policy, and Law (LL.B and LL.M in Information Technology Law). This diversity of experience enables me to engage with technical, policy, and legal perspectives effectively. If elected to the ALAC, I will serve with humility, integrity, and full accountability to the AFRALO community. I believe strongly in the collective power of our voices and will strive to reflect them with diligence and purpose within ALAC. Thank you for considering my candidacy. I look forward to the opportunity to serve. Best regards, -- Jacob Odame-Baiden Esq.

Dear AFRALO Community,
I am writing to express my keen interest in serving as the ALAC Member (AFRALO Nominated). It would be a great honour to represent our dynamic region on the ALAC and contribute meaningfully to the advancement of end-user interests within ICANN.
Below is my SOI
My name is Jacob Odame-Baiden from Ghana. Over the years, I have built a strong foundation of engagement within the ICANN ecosystem. As Co-Founder and Vice President for Legal & Engagement at the EGIGFA ALS, I have led and contributed to several initiatives aimed at strengthening Internet Governance participation in Ghana and across the African continent.
I am especially proud of how our efforts have supported a growing number of active contributors within ICANN and its various constituencies. Within AFRALO, I have had the privilege of volunteering on the Rules of Procedure (RoP) Committee and serving as a co-drafter of AFRALO Statements, including as pen-holder during ICANN77. These roles have deepened my appreciation of the collaborative and consultative processes that define our region’s engagement.
My participation in ICANN goes back to 2019 and includes both in-person and virtual meetings. I am a proud alumnus of the ICANN Fellowship Program and a recent participant in the Policy Acceleration Program, which significantly enhanced my understanding of ICANN’s policy development mechanisms.
Professionally, I am a technology lawyer with a focus on data protection, privacy, telecommunications, and media law. I also serve on the board of ActionAid Ghana and on the Steering Committee of the Internet Rights and Principles Coalition, where I advocate for digital inclusion and human rights online.
I bring to this role a multidisciplinary background—spanning Computer Science, Economics, Communication Technology & Policy, and Law (LL.B and LL.M in Information Technology Law). This diversity of experience enables me to engage with technical, policy, and legal perspectives effectively.
If elected to the ALAC, I will serve with humility, integrity, and full accountability to the AFRALO community. I believe strongly in the collective power of our voices and will strive to reflect them with diligence and purpose within ALAC.
Thank you for considering my candidacy. I look forward to the opportunity to serve.

[English] Dear community members, First and foremost, I would like to express my deep gratitude to Mohamed EL BASHIR for nominating me for a second term as AFRALO’s representative within the ALAC, and to all those who supported my nomination. I hereby officially accept this nomination. You can consult my profile at the following links: - LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abdelaziz-hilali-b15b1611/ - ICANNWiki: https://icannwiki.org/Aziz_Hilali - At-Large SOI: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=39421253 Below you will find my statement of Interest and a brief biography. Thank you to everyone who has always supported me. Our collective commitment remains our greatest strength. Best Regards Prof. Aziz Hilali ISOC Morocco Chair ALAC Member President of the Mediterranean Federation of Internet Associations North African Internet Governance Forum (NAIGF) Arab IGF (AIGF) Statement of Interest (SOI)For over fifteen years, my engagement within AFRALO has been constant, deep, and active. As a founding member and frontline actor, I have had the privilege of witnessing and directly contributing to all the major stages of its development. This long-standing experience has enabled the initiation and support of numerous actions: organization of webinars, awareness workshops, online and in-person training sessions, always aimed at strengthening member capacities and growing our community. Over the years, AFRALO has evolved from a small group to a strong network of over 77 ALS from 33 countries across the continent. This cultural, linguistic, and geographic diversity is now a recognized strength, and being part of this growth is a great pride. Key milestones include organizing AFRALO General Assemblies and hosting two ICANN meetings in Marrakech (ICANN55 and ICANN65), made possible through close collaboration with local authorities. These events significantly boosted African community engagement. Parallel to this community work, a scientific career was built around ICT and Internet Governance topics. Numerous publications, conference presentations, and the creation of a full course recorded for the ICANN Academy have allowed sharing this expertise with many. Teaching Internet Governance in universities and engineering schools in Morocco and across the Mediterranean continues this mission.During my first term at ALAC, I remained committed to faithfully representing African end users, ensuring their needs and specificities were heard within ICANN. Today, with more availability and an undiminished motivation, I am eager to continue this mission with a second term. The ambition remains the same: to advance African participation, raise our community's voice, and continue making AFRALO a strong, inclusive, and influential organization. Biography – Aziz Hilali Aziz Hilali is a longstanding figure in Internet governance in Africa and the Mediterranean region. He is a retired Professor from the National Institute of Posts and Telecommunications (INPT) of Morocco and holds a Doctorate/PhD in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics from the University of Grenoble.

For over two decades, he has been actively promoting an open, inclusive Internet.
