Behind policies and guidebooks we have individuals, and let's not gloss over this issue. Whoever is going to look after .africa must have credibility and good standing in the community.  This issue was actually raised by "Ms Lerato" some time back about someone who supposedly Had a conflict of interest.

Now when we are training leadership we say that credibility is made up of two components. Character and Competence. Where character represents integrity and intent.  If the discussion about people hiding behind different names is proved to be right I would think that the score on both integrity and intent are in the negative.  Since the intention was to deliberately mislead the community.   

Competency points to results and capabilities here again I will say that DCA have failed to demonstrate capability to operate a resource on behalf of the African community.

Just like you I think we have all been Mislead.   

Regards
