ccNSO Council Nominations/Secondments – special council elections
There needs to be an election in the African region to fill a vacancy. Mr. Vika Mpisane has stepped down from the ccNSO Council in July 2016. Therefore, the ccNSO members in the African Region will need
to elect two candidates: one for the regular council election, and one for the special council election. The person elected following the special council election will take the seat on the council immediately and serve until March 2018.
