Hello AFRALO community,
I would like to nominate Remmy Nweke as the ALAC member to replace Sarah. We can all testify to the great impact and contributions Remmy has been making in the AFRALO community till now. He has been the Editor for the AFRALO newsletter since its inception among others.
He has shown commitment to the course of AFRALO which is undoubted. I believe he will do well if he is given the chance to be an ALAC member.
I hope he will accept this nomination.
