Dear AFRALO Community, I am writing to bring to your attention that Hadia El Miniawi, who has been nominated for the position of AFRALO Chair, is not eligible to run for this position. As you are aware, there are two ways to be a Member of AFRALO, either by belonging to an At-Large Structure (ALS) or by being an individual member. However, our investigations have shown that Hadia El Miniawi does not belong to any known ALS nor is she an individual member. Hadia is only qualified to be an observer within AFRALO and therefore not eligible to run for the position of AFRALO Chair. Additionally, she is not eligible to attend the forthcoming General Assembly for the same reason. Investigations show that there is only one ALS in Egypt, and the ALS has confirmed that Hadia El Miniawi is currently not a member of that ALS. Therefore, I regret to inform the community that based on the available information, she is not eligible to run for the position of AFRALO Chair. If the investigation is wrong I hope she can provide the evidence. I really do appreciate the interest and enthusiasm of all the individuals who nominated her and those that seek to contribute to the work of AFRALO. However, it is essential to follow the eligibility criteria and procedures to maintain the integrity of the Organisation. Not considering this critical factor would rubbish the foundation of AFRALO. If one can be a chair with being a member then why do membership exist. I want to urge ATLARGE staff that they should do due diligence before announcing those eligible to run as I think there is a similar candiatate too in another RALO who is also not a member of that RALO I urge the community to take note of this information and respect the eligibility criteria for the election process. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. AK On Wed, Apr 26, 2023 at 5:02 PM Hadia El Miniawi via AFRI-Discuss < afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote:

The role of nomcom is a unique one that requires experience within ICANN, internet ecosystem and beyond.

I therefore accept the nomination in full understanding of the responsibilities expected of me and commit to contribute my part towards finding good candidates for various leadership positions within the scope of nomcom.

Hello All, I would like to nominate Prof. Aziz Hilali as an AFRALO representative in ALAC. Aziz has always been a very active member of the AFRALO family. He successfully carried out many activities greatly contributing to the improvement of our Organization. He led the organization of two African meetings ICANN55 and ICANN65 in Marrakech, with great success. Prof. Aziz has proven his excellent leadership, experience and expertise in working for AFRALO. I am sure he will perfectly represent Africa in ALAC. I would also like to nominate Seun Odjedi to represent AFRALO in the NomCom. Seun demonstrated his excellent leadership style, hard work and dedication to success during his tenure as AFRALO Chair. He has been very active and has tremendously contributed to the African community’s engagement in ICANN. I have no doubt that Seun will contribute even more as a NomCom member. I kindly invite my AFRALO colleagues who can confirm their positive achievements to support these 2 nominations. Thank you.

Hello All,
I would like to nominate Prof. Aziz Hilali as an AFRALO representative in ALAC. Aziz has always been a very active member of the AFRALO family. He successfully carried out many activities greatly contributing to the improvement of our Organization. He led the organization of two African meetings ICANN55 and ICANN65 in Marrakech, with great success. Prof. Aziz has proven his excellent leadership, experience and expertise in working for AFRALO. I am sure he will perfectly represent Africa in ALAC.
I would also like to nominate Seun Odjedi to represent AFRALO in the NomCom. Seun demonstrated his excellent leadership style, hard work and dedication to success during his tenure as AFRALO Chair. He has been very active and has tremendously contributed to the African community’s engagement in ICANN. I have no doubt that Seun will contribute even more as a NomCom member.
I kindly invite my AFRALO colleagues who can confirm their positive achievements to support these 2 nominations.

Hello All,
I would like to nominate Prof. Aziz Hilali as an AFRALO representative in ALAC. Aziz has always been a very active member of the AFRALO family. He successfully carried out many activities greatly contributing to the improvement of our Organization. He led the organization of two African meetings ICANN55 and ICANN65 in Marrakech, with great success. Prof. Aziz has proven his excellent leadership, experience and expertise in working for AFRALO. I am sure he will perfectly represent Africa in ALAC.
I would also like to nominate Seun Odjedi to represent AFRALO in the NomCom. Seun demonstrated his excellent leadership style, hard work and dedication to success during his tenure as AFRALO Chair. He has been very active and has tremendously contributed to the African community’s engagement in ICANN. I have no doubt that Seun will contribute even more as a NomCom member.
I kindly invite my AFRALO colleagues who can confirm their positive achievements to support these 2 nominations.
Thank you.
Warm greetings and best wishes to all of you,
Fatimata

Dear All,
On behalf of Jonathan Zuck, ALAC Chair, we would like to announce that
the 2023 call for nominations for At-Large leadership positions is now open.
Positions Open:
Please refer to the 2023 ALAC and RALO Elections, Selections and
Appointments workspace for a comprehensive list of all available positions and whether current holders of the positions are eligible for re-selection.
Selection Schedule for ALAC Members, RALO Leadership, and ALAC
Delegates to the NomCom:
17 April 2023 - Announcement of call for nominations and Nominee's
Statement. (Except for NARALO, which opened on 13 April 2023)
17 April – 28 April 2023 - Nomination period (nominations accepted for 10 working days). 5 May 2022 - Deadline for nomination acceptances 9 May 2023 - 11 May 2023- Calls with the candidates if desired by the RALOs. 12 May - 19 May 2023 - Elections (If required, elections will begin no later than one week after the deadline for nomination acceptances and end no later than two weeks after that deadline). 2023 AGM [ ICANN78] - Newly elected ALAC Members and RALOs Leaders shall be seated at the end of the 2023 AGM following the close of the Board Meeting on 26 September 2023.
Process for Nominations: Nominations including self-nominations, must be made directly to the relevant RALO mailing list and by sending a note to At-Large staff.
All nominees are expected to submit a brief statement explaining why they believe they are a suitable candidate to At-Large staff. All nominees must also complete or update their Statement of Interest (see: At-Large New SOIs Workspace).
IMPORTANT: Criteria for NomCom Delegates
Specific criteria and requirements regarding the NomCom composition and NomCom delegates are outlined in the ICANN Bylaws in Article 8.
Please read the Job Description for NomCom Delegates. Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2024 NomCom:
Ineligibility for Service – Current or future ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.9 of ICANN’s Bylaws. The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission. NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment. The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours). All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all approved meetings). If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually.
IMPORTANT: RALOs may recommend one or more candidates to the ALAC. The appointment of NomCom delegates is carried out by the ALAC. Therefore, RALO recommendations are not binding.

Dear all, I humbly nominate Raymond Selorm Mamattah for AFRALO representative to ALAC. Raymond's contribution as a technology entrepreneur and advocate for digital rights and internet freedom in Africa cannot be over-emphasized. Through EGIGFA (of which he is the founder), Raymond Mamattah has organized several initiatives and programs aimed at promoting the use of ICTs and Internet governance across Africa. These include conferences, training workshops, and research projects on various aspects of e-governance and Internet governance in Africa. His footprints are at every corner of AFRALO. Ghanasig is one of the most vibrant SIGs in the ecosystem which is training several fellows from different African countries annually to effectively engage in the internet ecosystem/ICANN, and he is the master architect of the SIG in Ghana. His contributions to the several ICANN working groups he serves have been phenomenal and already putting Africa in a reputable perspective across the ecosystem. I have had the opportunity to work with him on Universal Acceptance (UA) Working group and I concluded that he is full of ideas and serving as an ALAC member will offer the best opportunity to do more of what he is best at; the brilliant ideas towards achieving organization's goals and leading to Africa's breakthrough in the ecosystem. He is well recognized for his work in promoting digital rights and internet governance in Africa. In 2019, he was named one of the top 50 digital transformation leaders in Africa by the Digital Transformation Congress. Raymond is a person fitter at representing Africa for the ALAC membership based on his skill set in the internet ecosystem and organizational matters across Africa in particular and across the globe.

Dear all. I hope my message finds you well. An innocent and harmless observation: Once a candidate has been nominated and registered by the Secretariat, I don't think there is any more need for nominating or seconding. Just wait for voting to commence and cast your votes. All these plus one, RENOMINATING is unnecessary. My one cent. I come in peace.

I have indeed contributed to awareness and engagement actions by organizing several webinars and trainings both face-to-face and virtual. I was one of the main organizers of the various General Assemblies of AFRALO (Dakar, London, Johannesburg), where we were able to bring together all the ALSes. Currently I am part of the Organizing Committee and Chairman of the Program Committee for the upcoming AFRALO GA on July 24th and 25th, 2023 in Accra . During my two terms as President and VC of AFRALO and thanks to the effort of all, we able to significantly increase the number of ALSes, and AFRALO now represents over 70 members from different countries on our continent. These ALSes are all working towards local human development through ICT. They represent a significant cultural, ethnic and linguistic diversity which is the strength of our RALO and offers the end-users the opportunity to join. I am proud that my ALS organized two successful ICANN meetings (ICANN55 & ICANN65) on African soil in Marrakech. I continue to advocate for meetings to be held in different countries on the continent to boost African participation in their country in the future. I want to continue serving our community and working with AFRALO within ALAC to increase our continent's participation in ICANN, make our voice heard, and make AFRALO even better. Today, I have more time to work on other internet-related challenges on our continent, and it would be a great honor for me to do it as an ALAC member. Thank you to everyone who has always supported me. I am committed to sharing my experience and skills to help my colleagues continue this evolution so that our RALO can progress and most effectively advocate for Internet end-users on our continent. Aziz Hilali [FRANÇAIS] DéclarationDepuis 2010, je suis engagé dans AFRALO et j'ai manifesté cet engagement à travers de multiples actions au fil des années. J'ai notamment contribué à des actions de sensibilisation et d'engagement en organisant plusieurs webinaires et formations, tant en présentiel qu'en virtuel. J'ai joué un rôle majeur dans l'organisation des différentes Assemblées Générales d'AFRALO (Dakar, Londres, Johannesburg), qui ont réuni toutes les ALS. Actuellement, je fais partie du comité d'organisation et je préside le comité de programme de la prochaine Assemblée Générale, qui se tiendra les 24 et 25 juillet 2023 à Accra. Pendant mes deux mandats en tant que président et vice-président d'AFRALO, et grâce à l'effort de tous, nous avons considérablement augmenté le nombre d'ALS, qui compte désormais plus de 70 membres représentant différents pays de notre continent. Toutes ces ALS travaillent pour le développement humain local à travers les TIC et offrent une importante diversité culturelle, ethnique et linguistique, qui fait la force de notre RALO et permet aux utilisateurs finaux d'y adhérer. Je suis fier que mon ALS ait organisé avec succès deux réunions ICANN (ICANN55 & ICANN65) sur le sol africain, à Marrakech. Nous continuons de plaider pour que des réunions se tiennent dans différents pays du continent pour stimuler la participation africaine dans leur propre pays à l'avenir. Je souhaite continuer à servir notre communauté et à travailler avec AFRALO au sein d’ALAC, pour accroître la participation de notre continent à l'ICANN, faire entendre notre voix et rendre AFRALO encore meilleur. Aujourd'hui, j'ai plus de temps pour travailler sur d'autres défis liés à Internet sur notre continent, et ce serait un grand honneur pour moi de le faire en tant que membre de l'ALAC. Je tiens à remercier tous ceux qui m'ont toujours soutenu. Je m'engage à partager mon expérience et mes compétences pour aider mes collègues à poursuivre cette évolution afin que notre RALO puisse continuer de progresser et défendre de manière encore plus efficace les utilisateurs finaux d'Internet sur notre continent.

Good evening Moataz Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS. Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious. If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI? This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in. Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection. It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa. As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO. This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO. Thank you.

Good morning Pastor Peters, Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely On Sun, Apr 30, 2023 at 9:50 PM Peters Omoragbon via AFRI-Discuss < afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote:

Dear Barrack Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard. The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?. Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years! I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation. You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership. I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman. Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO. Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (ALS since 2010).

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

Hi Pastor Peter's, Many thanks for your email. I think you have your say and I also had my say, I shared my opinion which is within my rights. AFRALO is an evolving organization. Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve. You are blowing a simple conversation out of context unless there is more to this conversation that what we are having, if that is the case you are within your rights to pursue that which you wish but allow others to also have an opinion.

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it. I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia? You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here. We all have our rights of freedom of expression, I have not opposed that right. God bless you.

Hi Pastor Peter's,
Many thanks for your email. I think you have your say and I also had my say, I shared my opinion which is within my rights. AFRALO is an evolving organization. Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve. You are blowing a simple conversation out of context unless there is more to this conversation that what we are having, if that is the case you are within your rights to pursue that which you wish but allow others to also have an opinion.

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.
Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard.

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

*Process for Nominations: *Nominations including self-nominations, *mus*t be made directly to the relevant RALO mailing list and by sending a note to At-Large staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org>.
All nominees are expected to submit a brief statement explaining why they believe they are a suitable candidate to At-Large staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org>. All nominees must also complete or update their Statement of Interest (see: At-Large New SOIs Workspace <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__community.icann.org_dis...> ).
*IMPORTANT: Criteria for NomCom Delegates*
Specific criteria and requirements regarding the NomCom composition and NomCom delegates are outlined in the ICANN Bylaws in Article 8 <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8>.
Please read the Job Description for NomCom Delegates <https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/231375118/2024%20NomCom%20J...>. Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2024 NomCom:
- Ineligibility for Service – Current or future ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.9 of ICANN’s Bylaws <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8> . - The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission. - NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment. - The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload *will increase* significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours). - All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all approved meetings). If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually.
*IMPORTANT: RALOs may recommend one or more candidates to the ALAC. The appointment of NomCom delegates is carried out by the ALAC. Therefore, RALO recommendations are not binding.*

Dear Pastor Peter's, I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's. Best Regards On Mon, 1 May 2023, 3:00 pm Peters Omoragbon, <petersomoragbon@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear colleagues, I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion. Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community. There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this. At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another. Regards Chair AFRALO Sent from my mobile Kindly excuse brevity and typos Every word has consequences. Every silence does too!

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it.
I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia?
You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here.
We all have our rights of freedom of expression, I have not opposed that right.

Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve.

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.
Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard.

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

Dear Mr. Chairman. Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion. I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010. I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive. Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack. One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate. Having said that the following points must not be overlooked: 1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS 2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement. 3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past. 4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member. I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS. Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2 1. *Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's* Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region 2. 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, *each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures.* *A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region.* *That was why the Individual Members Group was created.* Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter. God bless you all. Pastor Peters Omoragbon On Mon, 1 May 2023, 13:58 Seun Ojedeji via AFRI-Discuss, < afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote:
Dear colleagues,
I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion.
Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community.
There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this.
At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another.
Regards Chair AFRALO Sent from my mobile Kindly excuse brevity and typos Every word has consequences. Every silence does too!

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.
Best Regards

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it.
I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia?
You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here.
We all have our rights of freedom of expression, I have not opposed that right.

Hi Pastor Peter's,
Many thanks for your email. I think you have your say and I also had my say, I shared my opinion which is within my rights. AFRALO is an evolving organization. Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve. You are blowing a simple conversation out of context unless there is more to this conversation that what we are having, if that is the case you are within your rights to pursue that which you wish but allow others to also have an opinion.

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.
Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard.

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Dear Pastor Peters, Let me take this early opportunity to apologise for the unfortunate remark and the misunderstanding, please accept my apology. I will also do the same privately to uphold our spirit of brotherhood. The Chairman has pronounced himself on the matter and i will not add anything sincd i stand guided.

Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion.
I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010.
I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive.
Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack.
One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate.
Having said that the following points must not be overlooked: 1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS 2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement. 3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past. 4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member.
I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS.
Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2
1. *Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's* Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region 2. 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, *each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures.* *A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region.* *That was why the Individual Members Group was created.*
Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter.
God bless you all. Pastor Peters Omoragbon

Dear colleagues,
I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion.
Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community.
There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this.
At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another.
Regards Chair AFRALO Sent from my mobile Kindly excuse brevity and typos Every word has consequences. Every silence does too!

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.
Best Regards

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it.
I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia?
You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here.
We all have our rights of freedom of expression, I have not opposed that right.

Hi Pastor Peter's,
Many thanks for your email. I think you have your say and I also had my say, I shared my opinion which is within my rights. AFRALO is an evolving organization. Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve. You are blowing a simple conversation out of context unless there is more to this conversation that what we are having, if that is the case you are within your rights to pursue that which you wish but allow others to also have an opinion.

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.
Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard.

That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.

Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard. The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?. Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years! I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation. You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership. I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman. Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO.

On Mon, 1 May 2023, 08:39 Barrack Otieno, <otieno.barrack@gmail.com> wrote: Good morning Pastor Peters, Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on.

Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious. If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI? This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in. Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection. It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa. As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO. This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process.

Dear all, I raised this issue in the first place and I hope I would be tolerated. First I do not think this is a personal issue as Hadia is someone I respect a lot and have worked closely with. In fact, we still had a meeting yesterday evening. She is very hardworking and vibrant. Am sure she did the same to me when I was in similar shoes and I had to be scrutinised by her, In fact she went far and beyond bringing up emails until she had her way. Am sure she knows this. So please let us not take this personally or abuse each other over it. It is for us to get things right. The Chair of an organisation should be someone who believes in that organisation as its image maker, not someone exploring an opportunity. Therefore there is a need to ensure that all those who have accepted to serve are well qualified and not just seeing an opportunity. Also, we make mistakes as humans but get them corrected if brought to our attention. A thorough investigation was conducted before I sent my earlier mail and I stand by the mail. if permitted I can share the correspondence official and non-official on the ALS and its documented membership according to the local documentation. Finally, Hadia has updated and has been asked to update her SOI a number of times cos of the various roles she took up since 2021, in this SOI she never declared that she is a member of this ALS. Attached is a copy of the SOI (as it was a week ago). My question is why didn't she disclose her membership of this ALS since 2021 having had many opportunities to do so? Is she now saying she filled the SOI with inaccurate information all the times she was asked to update it since 2021? Why did she decide to misinform the community since 2021?. We need to bear in mind that the SOI is a deceleration of interest and its importance within the ICANN community especially for GNSO. My question to staff and the community is are we allowed to fill our SOI with false information?. The SOI is so important that once one is taking up a sensitive position or appointed into a sensitive committee it must be updated before one is allowed. So it is important that staff also clarifies this. Thanks NB The GNSO Operating Procedures <https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/op-procedures-01sep16-en.pdf> mandate the filing of a Statement of Interest by any person who wishes to participate in a GNSO Working Group (including all GNSO Policy Development Processes). A Statement of Interest is currently defined as “a written statement made by a Relevant Party that provides a declaration of interests that may affect the Relevant Party's judgment, on any matters to be considered by the GNSO Group.” It is important for you to note that all Statements of Interest collected are publicly accessible through their display on the ICANN Community Wiki. This is done in furtherance of ICANN’s commitment, as specified in ICANN’s Bylaws <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article3>, for ICANN and its constituent bodies (including the GNSO) to “operate to the maximum extent feasible in an open and transparent manner and consistent with procedures designed to ensure fairness”.

Dear Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion.
I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010.
I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive.
Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack.
One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate.
Having said that the following points must not be overlooked: 1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS 2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement. 3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past. 4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member.
I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS.
Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2
1. *Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's* Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region 2. 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, *each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures.* *A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region.* *That was why the Individual Members Group was created.*
Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter.
God bless you all. Pastor Peters Omoragbon

Dear colleagues,
I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion.
Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community.
There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this.
At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another.
Regards Chair AFRALO Sent from my mobile Kindly excuse brevity and typos Every word has consequences. Every silence does too!

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.

The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

Dear all, Apologies once again. Just to say that Hadia is updated her Atlarge SOI to now include this ALS. This was just done on 30th April 2023. However, I can share screenshots of the SOI before this date. She previously updated the SOI in January 2023 without the inclusion of this ALS. including all others like icann Wiki. Her atlarge Biography on https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Hadia+El+Miniawi+-+Biography was updated on 26th April 2023 without any mention of this ALS. Like I said, my intention is just for us to have a chair who truly believes in AFRALO. Personally, I believe (I might be wrong) if she wanted to associate with AFRALO she should have done that long before now cos she knows but she is now doing it now when the opportunity to become chair available is what I disagree with. She is a fantastic person but I need clarification if this is not just an opportunity but her true belief in AFRALO and what is stands for. thanks On Tue, May 2, 2023 at 8:52 AM Abdulkarim Oloyede < oloyede.aa@unilorin.edu.ng> wrote:
Dear all, I raised this issue in the first place and I hope I would be tolerated.
First I do not think this is a personal issue as Hadia is someone I respect a lot and have worked closely with. In fact, we still had a meeting yesterday evening. She is very hardworking and vibrant. Am sure she did the same to me when I was in similar shoes and I had to be scrutinised by her, In fact she went far and beyond bringing up emails until she had her way. Am sure she knows this. So please let us not take this personally or abuse each other over it. It is for us to get things right. The Chair of an organisation should be someone who believes in that organisation as its image maker, not someone exploring an opportunity. Therefore there is a need to ensure that all those who have accepted to serve are well qualified and not just seeing an opportunity. Also, we make mistakes as humans but get them corrected if brought to our attention.
A thorough investigation was conducted before I sent my earlier mail and I stand by the mail. if permitted I can share the correspondence official and non-official on the ALS and its documented membership according to the local documentation.
Finally, Hadia has updated and has been asked to update her SOI a number of times cos of the various roles she took up since 2021, in this SOI she never declared that she is a member of this ALS. Attached is a copy of the SOI (as it was a week ago). My question is why didn't she disclose her membership of this ALS since 2021 having had many opportunities to do so? Is she now saying she filled the SOI with inaccurate information all the times she was asked to update it since 2021? Why did she decide to misinform the community since 2021?.
We need to bear in mind that the SOI is a deceleration of interest and its importance within the ICANN community especially for GNSO.
My question to staff and the community is are we allowed to fill our SOI with false information?.
The SOI is so important that once one is taking up a sensitive position or appointed into a sensitive committee it must be updated before one is allowed. So it is important that staff also clarifies this.
Thanks NB

Dear Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion.
I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010.
I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive.
Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack.
One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate.
Having said that the following points must not be overlooked: 1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS 2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement. 3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past. 4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member.
I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS.
Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2
1. *Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's* Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region 2. 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, *each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures.* *A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region.* *That was why the Individual Members Group was created.*
Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter.
God bless you all. Pastor Peters Omoragbon

Dear colleagues,
I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion.
Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community.
There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this.
At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another.

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it.
I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia?
You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here.

Hi Pastor Peter's,
Many thanks for your email. I think you have your say and I also had my say, I shared my opinion which is within my rights. AFRALO is an evolving organization. Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve.

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

Dear All, I think Abdulkarim Olojede has a point. We need a chair who truly believes in AFRALO. This doesn't mean I agree with him on Hadia. With the benefit of insight gained since 2006, I know the problems that can arise if we don't have a believing chairman. Therefore, an election should be held for this position. There should be a contest. Voters should have the opportunity to make a choice. Debates should take place. Candidates should tell us their manifestoes. If voters want a chairman who doesn't believe in AFRALO, good. If they want a chairman who believes in AFRALO, good. The era where leadership positions in AFRALO get chosen through mere acclamation should end. Voters should have an environment where they can make a choice, a transparent process of debates and elections.

Just to say that Hadia is updated her Atlarge SOI to now include this ALS. This was just done on 30th April 2023. However, I can share screenshots of the SOI before this date. She previously updated the SOI in January 2023 without the inclusion of this ALS. including all others like icann Wiki. Her atlarge Biography on https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Hadia+El+Miniawi+-+Biography was updated on 26th April 2023 without any mention of this ALS. Like I said, my intention is just for us to have a chair who truly believes in AFRALO. Personally, I believe (I might be wrong) if she wanted to associate with AFRALO she should have done that long before now cos she knows but she is now doing it now when the opportunity to become chair available is what I disagree with. She is a fantastic person but I need clarification if this is not just an opportunity but her true belief in AFRALO and what is stands for. thanks On Tue, May 2, 2023 at 8:52 AM Abdulkarim Oloyede <oloyede.aa@unilorin.edu.ng> wrote: Dear all, I raised this issue in the first place and I hope I would be tolerated. First I do not think this is a personal issue as Hadia is someone I respect a lot and have worked closely with. In fact, we still had a meeting yesterday evening. She is very hardworking and vibrant. Am sure she did the same to me when I was in similar shoes and I had to be scrutinised by her, In fact she went far and beyond bringing up emails until she had her way. Am sure she knows this. So please let us not take this personally or abuse each other over it. It is for us to get things right. The Chair of an organisation should be someone who believes in that organisation as its image maker, not someone exploring an opportunity. Therefore there is a need to ensure that all those who have accepted to serve are well qualified and not just seeing an opportunity. Also, we make mistakes as humans but get them corrected if brought to our attention. A thorough investigation was conducted before I sent my earlier mail and I stand by the mail. if permitted I can share the correspondence official and non-official on the ALS and its documented membership according to the local documentation. Finally, Hadia has updated and has been asked to update her SOI a number of times cos of the various roles she took up since 2021, in this SOI she never declared that she is a member of this ALS. Attached is a copy of the SOI (as it was a week ago). My question is why didn't she disclose her membership of this ALS since 2021 having had many opportunities to do so? Is she now saying she filled the SOI with inaccurate information all the times she was asked to update it since 2021? Why did she decide to misinform the community since 2021?. We need to bear in mind that the SOI is a deceleration of interest and its importance within the ICANN community especially for GNSO. My question to staff and the community is are we allowed to fill our SOI with false information?. The SOI is so important that once one is taking up a sensitive position or appointed into a sensitive committee it must be updated before one is allowed. So it is important that staff also clarifies this. Thanks NB The GNSO Operating Procedures mandate the filing of a Statement of Interest by any person who wishes to participate in a GNSO Working Group (including all GNSO Policy Development Processes). A Statement of Interest is currently defined as “a written statement made by a Relevant Party that provides a declaration of interests that may affect the Relevant Party's judgment, on any matters to be considered by the GNSO Group.” It is important for you to note that all Statements of Interest collected are publicly accessible through their display on the ICANN Community Wiki.

Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion. I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010. I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive. Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack. One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate. Having said that the following points must not be overlooked:1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement.3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past.4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member. I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS. Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2 - Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region - 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures. A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region. That was why the Individual Members Group was created. Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter. God bless you all.Pastor Peters Omoragbon On Mon, 1 May 2023, 13:58 Seun Ojedeji via AFRI-Discuss, <afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote: Dear colleagues, I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further.

Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community.

It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process.

Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard. The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?. Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years! I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation. You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership. I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman. Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO. Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all.

Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely On Sun, Apr 30, 2023 at 9:50 PM Peters Omoragbon via AFRI-Discuss <afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote: Good evening Moataz Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS. Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious. If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI? This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in. Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection. It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa. As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO. This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.

Good morning all. First, I must register my great disappointment in the position taken by @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> in their email to the house on this matter yesterday. It demonstrate the bias and partiality by the @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> on issues bordering on strengthening all the tenets of the aims and philosophy of ICANN and what it stands for! ICANN is sited and registered in the United States of America, a country that prides itself on the respect for the Rule of Law and due process that today, President Trump is being called to account for his past misrule. To what extent has @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> helped matters as serious as this within AFRALO by someone merely THANKING Moataz for claiming belatedly that Hadia belonged to their ALS? It goes to show that either @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> is either too complacent, lazy to do their due diligence or conspiring to foist on AFRALO a candidate that has refused to identify with all that AFRALO stand for, who is now trying to be opportunistic because, she was nominated by people who ordinarily should have known she is not part of the AFRALO community to contest for the seat of AFRALO Chair. The Chairman of AFRALO both current and past all knew too well that Hadia does not meet the criteria to be so elected, they shifted the matter to @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> for adjudication. They knew too well that Hadia has never identified with ANY ALS until 30th June 2023 when she fraudulently updated her SOI to include that information after she was exposed. Hadia just updated her SOI to include her membership of an ALS just after the deadline for nomination after the issue of qualification was raised! This to us is fraudulent and @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> are helping her and the ALS to perpetuate. At the end of the day, if and when she is smuggled in and wins, what do you expect? A Chairman that will pander to the whims and caprices of those who helped to abuse the process to have her there. She will never represent the interest of AFRALO but that as decided by @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> . As long as Africans will continue to be so desperate for power, other vested interests outside of Aftica will continue to use them to advance their control. A lot of issues have been raised concerning Hadia qualifications based on the ICANN byelaws, the ALS Framework and records of performance index questioning Hadia qualifications for election, all @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> can do is provide a clear evidence as the repository of ICANN activities to the contrary and not just a mere 5 lines statement that someone claimed she belonged to their ALS! Meaning as active and popular as Hadia in the ICANN ecosystem with all her activities and roles @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> couldn't determine until yesterday what ALS she represents! This is not the end of this matter as I shall be reporting this matter to Ombudsman for adjudication, especially on the damaging role being played by those @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> .

Dear all, Apologies once again.
Just to say that Hadia is updated her Atlarge SOI to now include this ALS. This was just done on 30th April 2023. However, I can share screenshots of the SOI before this date. She previously updated the SOI in January 2023 without the inclusion of this ALS. including all others like icann Wiki. Her atlarge Biography on https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Hadia+El+Miniawi+-+Biography was updated on 26th April 2023 without any mention of this ALS.
Like I said, my intention is just for us to have a chair who truly believes in AFRALO.
Personally, I believe (I might be wrong) if she wanted to associate with AFRALO she should have done that long before now cos she knows but she is now doing it now when the opportunity to become chair available is what I disagree with.
She is a fantastic person but I need clarification if this is not just an opportunity but her true belief in AFRALO and what is stands for.
thanks

Dear all, I raised this issue in the first place and I hope I would be tolerated.
First I do not think this is a personal issue as Hadia is someone I respect a lot and have worked closely with. In fact, we still had a meeting yesterday evening. She is very hardworking and vibrant. Am sure she did the same to me when I was in similar shoes and I had to be scrutinised by her, In fact she went far and beyond bringing up emails until she had her way. Am sure she knows this. So please let us not take this personally or abuse each other over it. It is for us to get things right. The Chair of an organisation should be someone who believes in that organisation as its image maker, not someone exploring an opportunity. Therefore there is a need to ensure that all those who have accepted to serve are well qualified and not just seeing an opportunity. Also, we make mistakes as humans but get them corrected if brought to our attention.
A thorough investigation was conducted before I sent my earlier mail and I stand by the mail. if permitted I can share the correspondence official and non-official on the ALS and its documented membership according to the local documentation.
Finally, Hadia has updated and has been asked to update her SOI a number of times cos of the various roles she took up since 2021, in this SOI she never declared that she is a member of this ALS. Attached is a copy of the SOI (as it was a week ago). My question is why didn't she disclose her membership of this ALS since 2021 having had many opportunities to do so? Is she now saying she filled the SOI with inaccurate information all the times she was asked to update it since 2021? Why did she decide to misinform the community since 2021?.
We need to bear in mind that the SOI is a deceleration of interest and its importance within the ICANN community especially for GNSO.
My question to staff and the community is are we allowed to fill our SOI with false information?.
The SOI is so important that once one is taking up a sensitive position or appointed into a sensitive committee it must be updated before one is allowed. So it is important that staff also clarifies this.
Thanks NB

Dear Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion.
I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010.
I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive.
Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack.
One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate.
Having said that the following points must not be overlooked: 1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS 2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement. 3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past. 4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member.
I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS.
Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2
1. *Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's* Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region 2. 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, *each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures.* *A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region.* *That was why the Individual Members Group was created.*
Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter.
God bless you all. Pastor Peters Omoragbon

Dear colleagues,
I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion.
Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community.
There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this.
At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another.
Regards Chair AFRALO Sent from my mobile Kindly excuse brevity and typos Every word has consequences. Every silence does too!

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it.
I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia?
You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here.

You are blowing a simple conversation out of context unless there is more to this conversation that what we are having, if that is the case you are within your rights to pursue that which you wish but allow others to also have an opinion.
Best Regards

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.
Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard.

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

Dear all, Why do we have to wait until now to make complaints? is my question? I will be glad to know in clear words if there is any conflict of interest in this issue that makes Hadia not elegible to context. It looks to me that personality is being compromise in order to make room for someone else. Is Hadia not a part of this community? I will be glad to know in clear words. If you ask me, I'll say let's allow who is a member of this community expressed interest to context and whoever the community's dim feet chooses to lead. *Wisdom Donkor* (CASP+, CISM, CEH Certified,) President & CEO Africa Open Data and Internet Research Foundation (AODIRF) | Africa Geospatial Data and Internet Conference (AGDIC) P.O.

Dear all, I raised this issue in the first place and I hope I would be tolerated.
First I do not think this is a personal issue as Hadia is someone I respect a lot and have worked closely with. In fact, we still had a meeting yesterday evening. She is very hardworking and vibrant. Am sure she did the same to me when I was in similar shoes and I had to be scrutinised by her, In fact she went far and beyond bringing up emails until she had her way. Am sure she knows this. So please let us not take this personally or abuse each other over it. It is for us to get things right. The Chair of an organisation should be someone who believes in that organisation as its image maker, not someone exploring an opportunity. Therefore there is a need to ensure that all those who have accepted to serve are well qualified and not just seeing an opportunity. Also, we make mistakes as humans but get them corrected if brought to our attention.
A thorough investigation was conducted before I sent my earlier mail and I stand by the mail. if permitted I can share the correspondence official and non-official on the ALS and its documented membership according to the local documentation.
Finally, Hadia has updated and has been asked to update her SOI a number of times cos of the various roles she took up since 2021, in this SOI she never declared that she is a member of this ALS. Attached is a copy of the SOI (as it was a week ago). My question is why didn't she disclose her membership of this ALS since 2021 having had many opportunities to do so? Is she now saying she filled the SOI with inaccurate information all the times she was asked to update it since 2021? Why did she decide to misinform the community since 2021?.
We need to bear in mind that the SOI is a deceleration of interest and its importance within the ICANN community especially for GNSO.
My question to staff and the community is are we allowed to fill our SOI with false information?.
The SOI is so important that once one is taking up a sensitive position or appointed into a sensitive committee it must be updated before one is allowed. So it is important that staff also clarifies this.
Thanks NB

Dear Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for your contributions and proposal to the current discussion.
I am for peace and unity and I have demonstrated that in all my contributions within ICANN since 2010.
I have never insulted anyone even when I disagree with that person-neither have I used words like nuances or bullies when responding to contributions from the floor. As much as I understand your delicate position as chair in not taking sides and suing for peace, we should not shy away from pointing out when anyone oversteps bounds-calling me a 'bully' is unacceptable and Barrack must asked to withdraw that statement with an apology. Elective offices are voluntary quite right but, the fact you endorse another candidate against any other is no licence to be disrespectful and insultiive.
Take this as a formal complaint from me to AFRALO Leadership against Mr Barrack.
One major take away from this development thus far, is the need for AFRALO to work hard to put its house in order. On the first instance, it is primarily the responsiblity of the Secretariat to provide the correct state of membership before even asking @ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> to confirm or otherwise. The At Large Framework that was adopted by the ICANN Board in June 2003, which was reviewed by the ALAC ALS MOP WP (where I played a major role ) laid very good groundwork for both RALOs and ALSs to function but, I doubt if many of us have taken time to avail ourselves of the document to date. If it was done, we wont be having this debate.
Having said that the following points must not be overlooked: 1. Hadia has overtime stated she did not belong to any ALS 2. Even if she is now said to belong to one, this was too important to omit when she was making her declaration to vie for the office of the Chairman in both nomination and SOI/EOI statement. 3. Her nomination was never endorsed by any ALS including the one now claiming she has been their member since 2021 UNTIL Mr Oloyede pointed this out few days ago after the deadline for nomination was past. 4. We would want records of her involvement with the said ALS both in the past and present confirming her membership with it. In all her ICANN roles and activities so far, they were never recorded for her as representative of the ALS but as an individual. Even the AFRALO individual membership that we worked hard to develop by the ROP WG , she is not a member.
I will endorse her anytime to play any leadership role in AFRALO but it must be done in line with extant guidelines-if not, there will be no basis for an AFRALO and AFRALO only exist by the congruent parts of all the ALS.
Let me end here by drawing attention to some sections of the AT LARGE ALS FRAMEWORK (III), subsection 1 &2
1. *Each RALO shall be comprised of At-Large Structures based within its Geographic Region that have been certified to meet the requirements of the RALO's* Memorandum of Understanding with ICANN. There will be no more than one RALO in each Geographic Region 2. 3.Each RALO's Memorandum of Understanding shall include provisions designed to achieve robust participation of individual Internet users in its region. Prior to finalizing its MOU, *each RALO shall provide support for their declaration that every interested citizen or resident in its region is welcome to join at least one of its At-Large Structures.* *A RALO may elect to also directly include individual Internet users who are citizens or residents of countries within the RALO's Geographic Region.* *That was why the Individual Members Group was created.*
Thank you all as we await the impartial review by all members of AFRALO and the ICANN Staff with ggod and clear consciences. This is my last take on this matter.
God bless you all. Pastor Peters Omoragbon

Dear colleagues,
I have restrained myself to comment on this with the hope that this discussion will not continue further. While I am a nomcom rep candidate in the upcoming election, I cannot also shy away from the fact that I am still currently the Chair of AFRALO hence can't keep mute after observing the direction of this discussion.
Colleagues, these are volunteer positions and we are all seeking to contribute our part towards the development of ICANN and the global internet community. For some of us we've known each other beyond ICANN and we should not let this matter torn us apart as a community. Whoever is elected/selected to the various open positions cannot perform the role successfully without the support of the community.
There has been observation that a candidate isn't member of an ALS, someone has responded indicating that the candidate is indeed a member of their ALS. @Staff should kindly confirm validity of the response and the nomination thereof. The response from staff shall then be be final on this.
At the upcoming general assembly, some of our internal matters shall be discussed with the aim of seeing our we can improve upon our process towards accommodating our differences. Until then, I humbly request the understanding of everyone to be civil and accommodate one another.

Dear Pastor Peter's,
I appreciate your comments. I simply shared my thoughts which elicited a very strong reaction from you necessitating the response above. Be that as it may, I appreciate the fact that you liken this process to a Parliamentary process which makes me appreciate your point of view more. It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process. I don't think this is a fight, let us reason together my brother Pastor Peter's.

Dear Barrack. I will ignore your innuendo which is meant to provoke and present me in a bad light to satisfy your sinister motives. I refuse to fall for it.
I wonder why you are now the spokesman for Hadia. You dont belong to the same ALS. For an ex Secretary of AFRALO I wonder what you re promoting all in guise to be in the good books of Hadia?
You want to lower the bar that was not applied to your candidature when you contested for Hadia by calling me a bully. That is far below decency and organisational discuss. I hope the leadership and others are reading your unpaliamentary remarks here.

Hi Pastor Peter's,
Many thanks for your email. I think you have your say and I also had my say, I shared my opinion which is within my rights. AFRALO is an evolving organization. Let us stop being bullies and allow the organization to evolve. You are blowing a simple conversation out of context unless there is more to this conversation that what we are having, if that is the case you are within your rights to pursue that which you wish but allow others to also have an opinion.
Best Regards

Dear Barrack
Your intervention makes very interesting reading but your attempt to defend the indefensible is destroying very fabric of building AFRALO on its structures is defeated if you in one voice claimed you were endorsed and supported by ALSs structures of AFRALO to be elected into the secretariat and on the other saying Hadia or anyone else can come from outside these structures to vie for elective offices in AFRALO as individuals is very conflicting to say the least. Why do you think she needs not be a member of an ALS to contest? That to me is double standard.
The angle of gender balance is fundamentally flawed and smacks of cheap blackmail to say the least. Sarah K was Secretary for 4 years. She was elevated to ALAC and still there. So what imbalance are you referring to?.
Other women have indicated interest in the past for one post or the other. No where in the history of ICANN has there been deliberate attempt to prevent women from elective offices. Until recently, Maureen was ALAC Chair for years!
I do not play to the gallery. I have nothing personal against Hadia, other than that she does not merit to lead AFRALO because she does not belong to any ALS. We know the contributions a lot of us have made to sustain AFRALO. We did not just join just because of occupying offices. We joined because we are Pan Africanists. That is my over riding interest. To promote and protect the African value in a multi cultural social political entity like ICANN and any other organisation.
You may have your support for whosoever, but please, do not destroy the foundation of AFRALO in the name of "We were trying" to increase AFRALO membership.
I have done my due diligence by referring this matter to ICANN Staff for intervention. If not satisfied I will raise it with the Ombudsman.
Enough of this cult like tendency within AFRALO. Note, I am not desperate for any office in AFRALO, God has already promoted me. I am an added value to ICANN and AFRALO.
Have a blessed workers day celebrations. Justice for one is justice for all. Any peace without justice, is a peace of graveyard.

Good morning Pastor Peters,
Allow me to wade into this conversation. Using the ALS analogy, i joined AFRALO and served the Secretariat as a member of the ISOC Kenya ALS for which I was founding President. When the ALS joined AFRALO I was no longer a Chapter leader and just an ordinary member endorsed by my chapter. When i left office and joined the Kenya ICT Action Network i also worked alongside my colleagues Mwendwa Kivuva and Liz Orembo to ensure it was an ALS. I am an active member of both organizations and they are both At Large Structures meaning I potentially represent two at large structures and either can nominate me to vote or play a representative role. At that time our focus was to increase the AFRALO footprint in Africa by increasing the number of At Large Structures. Reading through your email, you introduce certain nuances which while they have merit may not necessarily have locus. Whereas we represent or are members of At Large Structures we vie as individuals normally with the support of other RALO members both individual and those representing At Large Structures though its the ALS vote that counts. It is normal as has been the case with this election for candidates to reach out across the board for support. Having said that and granted the 'infraction' you have pointed out which is debatable Hadias contribution to AFRALO and the At Large Constituency is not in question. There is merit in judging her as well based on the value to the RALO and whether she will represent the interests of the RALO well. We are also aware of the fact that since madam Fatimata left the position as Chair we have not had another female Chair, what are we doing as a RALO to encourage gender balance when it comes to such roles. Simple as her candidature may appear it may inspire many women to take up their roles in in the Internet ecosystem. We saw one of the ALS Leaders Hadja Sanon rise to become a Cabinet Minister in Burkina Faso after sharing the meeting rooms with us in AFRALO. She actually graced the Africa Domain Name System Forum in 2020 at the peak of COVID as the Minister. I hold no brief for Hadia despite knowing and working with her in AFRALO, At Large and DNS related events in Africa. What I know is she walks the talk. It also behoves us to encourage a gender balance to encourage active participation of women in the Internet and DNS ecosystem in Africa especially when we get good candidates who are willing to offer themselves to be of service to the RALO. Let us also have a futuristic approach that leaves no one behind, i am keen to see how we are fairing as a RALO based on gender and i hope the incoming secretariat will give us a preview on the same and advise if it is an area we need to work on. Many thanks for considering my humble thoughts and let us vote wisely

Good evening Moataz
Thank you for coming out to try a face saving effort for Hadia by way of claiming that she is a member of your ALS.
Without prejudice to our individual rights to aspire to any elective office in ICANN, I find your position here rather curious.
If Hadia has been your member since 2021, as you claimed, why did she not reflect this in both the nomination and her acceptance including her SOI?
This to me and other discerning members of AFRALO fall short of expectations. The offices in AFRALO are to be filled by the congruent parts of AFRALO which are the ALS. If all the ALS have not been doing what we have been doing, where would she have an AFRALO to contest in.
Another curiosity is why she was not endorsed or supported by your ALS from the moment nomination was opened until Akay raised his objection.
It is my humble opinion that, we should avoid short cuts in all we do in Africa.
As far as we are concerned in our ALS, Hadia does not represent your ALS in AFRALO.
This to us is a serious infraction which must be discouraged within AFRALO. Let us respect our due diligence and due process. This issue will have to be investigated by the ICANN Staff, because if not justifiably handled could destroy the fabric of AFRALO.
Thank you. Pastor Peters Omoragbon Executive President Nurses Across the Borders International (AFRALO ALS since 2010)

Dear Friends, This issue shouldn't escalate to this extent. AFRALO has laws governing its operations. We should study the laws related to this matter and act on them.

It seems I walked into a high stakes context with simplicity. Pardon me but I still don't understand where the contention is. I appreciate the letter of the law but I live by the spirit since the law can be transient. That explains the continuous evolution of Bylaws within the ICANN ecosystem which ensures the organization and community stays relevant. I can also confirm that I endorsed Hadias candidature, I don't think it's wrong to endorse anyone despite the fact that she is in a different ALS. It should also not be tied to any roles I have played in the past. That was then and the organization has made great strides in terms of improving how it operates which in itself if a continuous process.

Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2024 NomCom: - Ineligibility for Service – Current or future ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.9 of ICANN’s Bylaws. - The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission. - NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment. - The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours). - All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all approved meetings). If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually. IMPORTANT: RALOs may recommend one or more candidates to the ALAC. The appointment of NomCom delegates is carried out by the ALAC. Therefore, RALO recommendations are not binding.
