    <p><font color="#000099">I am one of those who have tried to
        convince you to run for another term. However after mere
        reflection, I think that you are wise in your decision. I would
        say that I really admire you for having taken such a sage
        decision. I have retained the following from your statement
        below: "I think it’s wise to step
        down, even if it is for a moment". I sincerely hope to see you
        again taking responsibilities at the AFRALO, ALAC and ICANN
        level. You have been the biggest asset for AFRALO and AFRICA and
        whatever we have achieved you have a big contribution on it.</font></p>
    <p><font color="#000099">Knowing you personally, I am sure you will
        still be around, though not taking any responsibilities but
        advising us when we need you or to redirect us when we go off
        tract.</font></p>
    <p><font color="#000099">Thank you from the bottom of my heart
        Tijani. There are not many who dare take decisions that you have
        taken. For this, you have my salute.</font></p>
    <p><font color="#000099">Fatimata has proposed Alex Corentin for the
        position of ALAC. I have known Alex for many years and it would
        be a great pleasure for me to second this nomination. The
        advantage in Africa is that the bondage of friendship and
        brotherhood links us and when we are confident that any friend
        or brother can do the job, we do not hesitate to support it.<br>

      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">Nevertheless, I would

          while, and it is wise to permit to the other members to enter

          AFRALO representative.</span></p>
      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">I came to AFRALO in
          2008, and I tried my best to raise
          the image and the credibility of AFRALO by several initiatives
          such as
          organizing an ALS showcase every time the ICANN meeting is
          held on an African
          land, a face to face capacity building for the African ALS
          representatives, the
          AFRALO-AfrICANN joint meeting where we debate an ICANN hot
          topic and come up
          with a statement representing the consensus opinion of all
          Africans participating
          in the ICANN meeting, as well as the local community
          engagement that permitted
          us to bring local community members of the country (or
          sub-region) where the
          ICANN meeting is held into the ICANN meeting and engage them
          (Durban, Marrakech
          2016, Johannesburg and Marrakech 2019), etc.</span></p>
      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">This has been
          achieved with your confidence and your
          engagement, and also because we had at that time engaged and
          collaborative
          people at the AFRALO leadership. Of course, I can’t forget to
          mention the encouragement
          and the help of the ALAC Chair at that time, and the support
          of some of the Board
          members</span></p>
      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">The image of AFRALO
          jumped very high and our RALO was
          and still is the only RALO who discuss policy issues and
          provide their opinion
          thereupon. It is the first to do showcases, capacity building,
          local community
          engagement, etc. All the other RALOs followed.</span></p>
      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">All this wouldn’t be
          possible without our unity,
          without the engagement of all who can dedicate time and
          energy, and without the
          trust and encouragement of those who can’t because of their
          heavy duties
          elsewhere. United, we did all this and we are at the top of
          our visibility and
          credibility.</span></p>
      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">I do thank you very

          and AFRICA. Thank you for staying united despite several
          attempts to divide our
          community. AFRALO is strong because we all think of the
          benefit of AFRALO, not
          our own interest. Please keep it like this.</span></p>
      <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="color:rgb(0,46,122)">Finally, I’m sorry to

          asking me to accept
          the nomination. I do understand your rational, but I think
          it’s wise to step
          down, even if it is for a moment. I let AFRALO in good hands,
          and I’m sure the current
          and upcoming leaders will continue the job and even raise the
